If you or your manager believe that there is only one "correct" option and that technical debt should always be minimized (vs being balanced against other factors), then odds are you're bother either terrible or very naive. In almost every moderately sized piece of work, there are multiple options and there's a choice of which one to take based on various priorities (ie, the best option varies depending on multiple factors).

While true, this doesn't change the premise. Both parties should agree on the "correct" approach in the context of this discussion: minimising technical debt.
