There is a lot to be said for getting outside the four walls of a business (or org) to evaluate things. If it's not visible outside those walls (software buggy enough to lose customers) and doesn't introduce significant future risk to the business (competition can move faster than you) it's probably good enough. The real trick of course is predicting and communicating why you think one of these is true. It's an essential problem of commercial software dev.
