I think it's still a valid viewpoint. "Good enough" is an opinion and just like all opinions, some are more valid than others. There's a range between "good enough" and "perfect" where plenty of very good products exist. Also, there's the possibility that the horrid mess of buggy legacy code (been there, I feel your pain) wasn't someone's idea of "good enough" in a technical sense but rather "good enough so that my boss doesn't notice." I've had the displeasure of working with those individuals before. They don't care about getting better at coding—they care about flying under the radar and collecting their biweekly paycheck.
