I do really like that analogy, of artisanship or craftsmanship. I understand the business need to move quickly, but over time I've found myself more intrinsically motivated by building what I think of as well-designed systems. That, to me, is art. That's what I get excited about. I'd also like to think that some of the extra time I spend upfront is saved down the road when things don't break. I think great engineering cultures respect that balance.
