The key to this sentence lies in the second statement: "and rarely aspire to do so". I have no qualms with students working enough to understand the material and not wanting to get 100% on every test; that's perfectly fine.
But in my experience teaching, the students who hold the "customer service" arguments are mostly the ones who are asking me if they can leave the lab early because it's half price Margarita night at the local bar (direct quote here, and not the only one of its kind). That's what I meant, sorry if it wasn't clear.

Since my cost-benefit analysis on how much work I'm going to devote to your class versus another class is directly proportional to my grade on previous assignments, too long of a delay can wildly impact grades.
