It’s not really hard to defend. Because when people says that productivity is uplifted, they are talking about amount of work, not the ROI. That’s why you keep hearing about LOC, amount of PR and prototypes, and the time taken is actually “time to PR” and not “time to production + time spent on bugs”.
