Obsessing about it when doing design/architecture but not caring so much in terms of raw implementation seems like a good idea?

Then if you detect inefficiency you can optimize the code and not the architecture.

I am building something with this mindset now, hopefully it will work

I think you're reading something I didn't write.

Nothing to do with architecture - rather ensuring you understand what decisions you're making, what other options you might have and why you're choosing not to do something (eg opportunity costs wrt delivery v time optimising)
