Crawford's travails remind me of the story of the pottery class (https://excellentjourney.net/2015/03/04/art-fear-the-ceramic...), in which half a studio is graded on the sheer quantity of pots they produce, while the others are graded on making one perfect pot. The "quantity" group ends up making higher quality pots because they've practiced and learned from their failures.

More succinctly, "real artists ship."
