I think the "just do it" mindset requires management who understands that follow up requests might need to clean things up and refactor. I think some engineers have been traumatized by repeated applications of "just do it" and try to avoid technical debt up front, which is really really hard unless you are a SME with years of experience on building that exact thing.
