If that were universally true in all domains then all the best and most reliable software in the world would be written in interpreted languages, because they have the fastest iteration speed. Sometimes rapid low-quality iteration is just spinning your wheels.

I'm not sure that is strictly true. Speed of iteration is increased by interpreted languages in the small, but when working on larger systems or on teams where collaboration is required they can have the opposite effect.

I also find that thinking through a design first helps me achieve a result faster. So I prefer languages that encourage you to think first, type later. Interpreted languages encourage you to type first, think later.

Moving the goalpost is not compelling.
