Just as "fast food" in not unhealthy because of the "fast" part (there's actually a ton of healthy "fast food" if you actually look for it), but because moving fast is hard and cool, so people cut corners instead of accepting that "slow is how they go" (like re-re-...-re-frying in the same oil as a way for "faster profit" for the fast food industry, or writing code with no/bad tests/documentation).
People should try and find their "natural speed" when coding, and figure out other personal special abilities they have instead of "speed", stead of trying to keep up with the fastest guy in the room and being afraid to give estimates that are x times longer than his, and managers should accept that people work and think at different speeds and "slow" != "stupid", as most Americans tend to use "slow" in everyday lingo.
