Its always been possible to trade long term productivity for short term gains with technical debt. This is why the bar I'm interested in is long term projects, which have proven to have long term success, instead of a small disposable project where the code quality doesn't matter

Difference is whether it's a false dichotomy now, because models like Fable can write better code than most devs I know.
