I think a lot of low quality code gets written when programmers rush themselves, rather than taking plenty of time to consider all options. I personally think programmers often feel more rushed than they actually are, because they feel embarrassed if they spend more time on something than they would like.

I don't think I've ever heard anyone talk about this embarrassment factor in any of the programming blog posts I read and videos I watched over the past decade.

I think most programmers are totally capable of consistently writing superb quality code, if they just allowed themselves to slow down. Of course this is different for companies with toxic "10x programmer" work cultures, but those should be avoided anyways.
