Less waste means less waste.

You can carve a guitar neck out of a single large piece of wood, but 60% of that piece of wood turns into waste.

Or you can glue three much smaller pieces of wood together, and 5% of that wood turns to waste.

It takes longer to make less waste.

But the waste in software development is time/labor, not wood.

we can spin the semantics how much we want, but if you ask 100 managers what they mean with "agile" is "do things faster".

In software development, time is the wood we carve stuff out of.
