Ah yes, the ye olde "it doesn't need to be perfect" response to serious, legitimate questions.
It's always about cheaper, better, faster. And when the thing being built extends beyond a single person, and still when working alone, conflict shows up in balancing the risks between these. The Strawman of Perfection is just that.
"It doesn't need to be perfect" is incredibly dismissive of the reality of the situation. Ignoring reality seems like a poor problem solving strategy.
No one is ignoring reality. The reality is that my internal tools don't have users besides myself and as long as they do what I want them to do, I'm perfectly happy with them.
