If you try to do this in a work context, you'll be told you are wasting time. Even if you aren't fired, you will not be considered for promotion: the way to do that is to have "a lot of impact". This means shipping a lot of half-baked stuff. The other piece of the puzzle you need is having good "work ethic". This is best demonstrated via late-night debugging heroics where you patch up the crud you shipped earlier while getting "impact" points. For whatever reason people who run companies believe that their customers wants "lots of crud quickly" instead of quality products.
