I suppose I can agree with this. For something as important as picking up from the floor it would probably be worth going back and redisgning.
The point of was getting at is sometimes time is better spent perfecting an old idea rather than rushing through a good idea. A bad idea that's well built is probably better than a poorly built good idea. At this point I guess it's time to evaluate whether it's worth it to redesign.
