Meaning
This points to the way anxiety about cost can shrink the perceived worth of something before it is even examined. It reads as a push to look at what is being built or bought for its substance first, and only then weigh the expense. It lands in shopping, hiring, or any decision where a fixating on price can hide the real value.
