The Perfectionism Trap Is Killing Your Velocity​

Here's a scene that plays out in engineering teams pretty often: A developer ships a feature Friday afternoon. It works. Core functionality is solid. No critical bugs. But the copy needs tweaking. The spacing is slightly off on mobile. One animation is 50ms slower than design spec.

So it doesn't ship. It goes back to the designer. Back to QA. Another week of tweaks.

This isn't quality control. It's perfectionism masquerading as standards. And it's costing you weeks of velocity every quarter.
