Author did kinda reference this with the ✨Development Velocity✨ part, but the truth is managers and businesspeople* are the ones that just don't care. Well, not about users at least. Managers just care about promotions and maintaining the upper hand in office politics, and businesspeople just care about money.
If devs were given the proper amount of time to implement things, they wouldn't be adding GBs of NPM packages from which only one function is used.
If devs were given any power in the decision-making process, the "17 tracking scripts you put on your websites which added 0.004 pence to your bottom line" would never be added
