Thanks to bureaucracy, sometimes, the only way to make something work is to do something on the sly.
And yeah, I also find if I think too much about one task, it gives me an excuse not to I find it difficult to work on what I'm meant to be doing.

we just didn't have enough of a budget or enough time when I first did the work, and I didn't have much experience at the time. Our clients are being pretty obtuse as well, which isn't helping matters at this stage.

In my line of work
I find the internal tools we use are often done by people with not much experience, leaving the end-users with a product that's more of a hack than a piece of engineering. It usually either keeps crashing or has a horrible user-interface, yet somehow manages to do the job.
