Whilst the desire to strive for perfection is in any craftsmen, ultimately what matters is getting the product to the customers and solving their needs.
Only after solving their needs should you start to indulge in the craft for what the customer cannot see, the internal quality.
I also sometimes describe this as "be lazy"... don't do anything that doesn't need to be done (for the benefit of the business and your customers).
