As someone who works in manufacturing, I can't count the number of times I've been told to "just make it work". And, in reality, sometimes that truly is the best option in the immediate term to get a system working so you can make enhancements later. But I think that's the operative phrase: so you can enhance later.

The challenge is that once the immediate fire is out, it's easy to simply leave things in a half-baked state. That accumulates as technical debt.

Thankfully, most of the instances where I have had to deal with this has been purely software and not affected the lives and comfort of operators on the floor like with Tesla. But I can see how this happens. Even if the 'tent' becomes a permanent installation, I hope they spend the time and money to improve it to the necessary working standards that employees deserve.
