As someone who had Teams imposed on them at the beginnings of the pandemic, I'd say: it is easy to ship anything fast when your users have no say on whether they want to use your product at all, no one cares that your laptop grinds to a halt when using it, and when no one will hold you responsible for delivering broken code.
