"Get it all" is a nice/noble/useful/cool sentiment, but I think this usage overloads an established metaphor.
The whole point of the triangular metaphor (as a visualisation) is to communicate a compromise situation - e.g. I'm working on a project, you can have Quality, Cost, Time as dimensions - you can't max out one without compromising another.
