Great piece! I keep telling people that the idea of “up fronting disappointment” tends to win on the long run. But like you referred: when the problems emerge, maybe sufficiently has changed anyway and no one really cares.
Interesting enough, my own piece coming out later today also mentions Limiting WIP as an example of dealing with things on an oblique (indirect) way: so to foster conversations about priorities. But as your piece so well explained: you got a first move away from that sort of aura misery with stakeholders.

Great article about fake feeling of haste.
I think, that 2 more points can be taken to consider:
1. loosing time on context-switching
2. Mortal Kombat-like rule (related also to the 1st point) - "Nearly done, so FINISH IT"
