- this is why some may prefer simpler tools and methods because a lot of what they want is already done
- getting the final 20% would require more effort and when done incorrectly, you could go into some trouble
+ bikeshedding
+ in learning, you could be overlearning

- this is also a good solution for not indulging into perfectionism as [[id:b62c61f1-ee12-4bd9-b59a-ec6eafe29f38 ][Unnecessary optimizations cripple progress ]]
