By this measurement, a slower compiler is better than a faster one, because developers are using it for more of their time. Totally bonkers, Microsoft!

When your identity is tied to that being a success, you will find a way to make it so, because it feels much worse to have your identity challenged at a fundamental level than it does to have people grumpy with you for acting in a way that allows you to preserve your identity.

Most corporate BS comes down to this.
