Doesn't the use of the word "just" frequently imply that someone is violating the yagni principle? Being rude can certainly be unproductive as well, but an infinite amount time and money can be wasted on unnecessary features and process. I think the question of whether effort actually helps move a task to completion is a crucial one, so getting down to brass tacks "just do this task and stop talking about metrics" has to happen eventually.
