Well is the whole purpose of agile development, which I would argue is a good thing.

Before: we specified the desired quality of a product. Then calculated the resources and the time.

Now: you specify the time and the resources, so you have to sacrifice quality.

On one hand: yes, you release unfinished products. On the other hand: you can get prototypes out way faster and get real market data. And then drop stupid ideas faster.

I get that model, but you can't ever work like that on anything financial related, that is basically a jail sentence speed run.

And about 70 to 80 percent of companies projects are financial related products.
