A process worth caring about leads to shipped software, and production is the wisest teacher and the most thorough QA. Shipping is important, but then you have to keep resources committed to quality improvement, not move on to the next shiny new thing.

That’s one of the biggest misconception I’ve experienced with developers. No one cares about whether you ship or not, unless it brings values. Shipping just for the sake of shipping is a fundamental misunderstanding of how a business works.

Well, sure, but whether the software has business value is the concern of the PM. Developers are usually haggling over the balance between speed of delivery and quality, for a fixed set of requirements.
