The sad bit about this attitude is that some of us consider web design/development to be a craft, rather than purely an exercise in profit-maximisation. We should be creating the very best work that we can, not just aiming for what's good enough, then stopping. That's just an opinion; I realise it's unpopular with some.
Overengineering is the biggest problem with the craft today. True craftsmanship is about giving the customer something appropriate to their needs, not making a magnum opus every time.

It is not unpopular. It is unrealistic.
