"Perfect Go"
Rebuttal for startups: https://benxlabs.substack.com/p/clean-code-is-killing-startups-and https://benxlabs.substack.com/p/clean-code-is-killing-startu...
Unless you want to release your product MVP or feature more than 6 months or a year late, you can indeed continue to write "perfect" code.
By the time it's perfect, you have not only released very late, but your competitors released and iterated faster, already cemented their products and took your customers faster than you.
After that, your startup would cease to exist.
