That sounds a lot like testing in production. Move fast and break things when the stake are human life. I will accept a slower pace of aircraft development, thank you.

We could move fast and quickly figure out a new lead free fuel... Or we could keep using our reliable leaded fuel that kills hundreds of people annually.

Sometimes, 'move fast and break things' actually saves lives. Especially when you're moving fast on the development of new safety systems.
