Well, I think I mostly agree. The only distinction I would draw is "good enough for its context" is synonymous in my mind for "as good as I'm willing to pay for." Everybody wants to pay for hamburger and eat caviar, but that ain't how the world works.
For all the increased whinging about software reliability, I have not seen a corresponding increase in what people are willing to pay for software. This indicates to me that we've achieved a level of rough market equilibrium.
But I would be thrilled to be wrong about that. I have a whole laundry list of refactors I'd love to take on. Cleaning up after myself is a luxury I am ill afforded.
