I think this is a result of conflating the act of coding with code as a result. The effort in understanding a domain and specifying a program is about learning and communicating about it with other people.

A working program is useful, but deepening knowledge about a business domain and being able to adapt to changes on the ground is the real value. Being accidentally right but unable to be consistently right over time is a distraction. It can generate false confidence, and future maintenance burdens.
