I can't deny that nature likes quick n dirty, but I wish I could just find a balance between reckless and too slow.

The balance is whatever works, gets people using the product, and ideally keeps them happy.

The balance is generally far more on the quick 'n dirty side than most engineers (myself included) would prefer, but we could look at this as a cognitive bias of engineers rather than a failing of nature.
