That's precisely my point. It's quite obvious to me that running tasks in parallel produces both more waste and faster results.

A good comparison would be Musk's other company SpaceX. You can surely put more rigor into r&d to reduce waste and failures (i.e like NASA) but you will progress slower.

Chances are that your company/project will get bankrupt(like so many biotech companies) if you don't move fast enough.
