I included the spiritual junk just to stay true to the original wording. The meat of it is the “Perfect speed … is being there” part. Setting aside concerns of relativistic accuracy, the point I think it makes quite well is that people often fail to think far enough outside the box to even realize what optimal would look like. Instead, people just settle for some intuitively obvious good-enough objective. Given the severe down voting, I will omit spiritual junk in future quotes.
