It depends on what's needful. Sometimes the right thing to
do is to hack out the thing that works, as quickly as possible.
Sometimes the right thing to do is to work carefully on
the design.
Other times you need the fastest possible code,
and then you don't use Perl. We live in a world. Programming is part of that world. It doesn't make sense to ask what a monk 'should' do except in relation to the rest of the world. No 'ethos' is better than the others. All have their places.
