It's interesting to see someone putting a positive spin to technical debt. The level of technical debt you can afford taking on (technical risk) is heavily dependent on how you define technical debt at your company. You must understand how taking on a technical risk will have an impact in the current and future operation of the entire business/product/team. Not all technical debts are created equal, so to encourage people to see it as a positive thing or risk worth taking, without giving them this disclaimer is irresponsible.
