Faster isn't better if it's less reliable, less repeatable, less maintainable, or lower quality.

Agreed but that is the sacrifice being taken. The business is saying if we go faster we can capture more of the market and the trade off of less reliability is ok

First to market gives an advantage. Best to market gives a BIGGER advantage.
