Your web site is down. You're losing $BIGNUM every hour. Someone says, we can work around it if we do this hack in this bit of code. But someone else says, we shouldn't do that, it will add technical debt and make more work for us later on down the line. We need to take our time and do it right.
That is, of course, ridiculous. You get the site back up and stop losing $BIGNUM. Once you've stopped the bleeding, then you can go back and do things the right way.
