Depends on what your metric for "productive" is. If you're producing more cars that have to all be recalled and fixed, you're not making more money than you would had you made higher quality cars from the start, and you then also lose face and your brand is viewed as inferior, so sales drop, and the spiral goes brr.
That doesn't matter as long as it doesn't happen in this quarter.
