That's a good response. I can buy a house cash, I can buy a house with a 5% mortgage, or I could buy a house with a 20+% loan.
Rushing out features with known bugs, poor architecture, no test and no documentation is akin to buying a house with a 20+% loan. You'll get your house sooner but you'll spend most of your resources servicing that debt until you can pay it down.
