Any tool can crap out code that serves a business need. That's a "product", fine. But it takes someone with a bit finer sense of competence to produce code that can work over a longer term and doesn't drag down the business in years to come.

It's not like it's not necessary to lower standards a bit sometimes, but because people who use that phrase a lot tend to, in my experience, use it as an excuse for churning out a lot of garbage.
