I think you are both right and wrong at the same time. Even in a business context its not sure you want reliable over feature. And I think a lot of developers are focusing way to much on good code. And with that they think a lot on how it can be extended in the future. But they fail to see that from a business perspective this code is properly not living for many years. I have seen so many projects with good code beeing shutdown. Its of course another side here, where you code is in production for 10 years+ with 100 developers making changes to the files... But a great developer / architect are able to really understand the business context they are working on and understand how that influence what you consider good code and good architecture
