When people complain about tech debt, and business disregard for it, they don't usually *actually* mean a limited set of specific issues.

What they're complaining about is a lack of "slack" to take on un-prioritized, but important work.

Slack is important for any healthy team. Setting up explicit slack in your roadmap (of 10%-20% of your time) can actually speed up product development and make your roadmap more consistent.

How?
