Counterpoint — good-enough technology prevents over-optimization, where we pay too high of a cost for too-marginal gains. It is generally better to reduce the cost of a 98% solution than to maintain the cost of a 99% solution. There will be exceptions for domains that require a 100% solution, but piano tuning is not one of them.
