If I was a game coder, I would be forced by my boss NOT to lose my time over "ridiculous" concepts such as optimizations, I would be told that releasing the game on a certain date is more important than releasing a finished product, and that's exactly what I would do, despite not agreeing with that view, to avoid losing my job.
Which is why the game industry sucks nowadays. There is zero quality left, due to publishers pushing for those all important $$$. The only quality left is in the independant sector: everyone else like EA and Ubisoft sell out, in favour of half-finished **** just so that the corporate executives can add a few hundred thousand to thier salaries. >.<
