I think I’m generally pragmatic; it has been a benefit in my career.

I value pragmatism since it means that actual change that benefits people can be implemented over holding out for a perfection that may never come. That said, I’m willing to tolerate some tradeoffs because I will evaluate change against the system functioning as is and some people don’t like it if they don’t like the dysfunctional part but the cost of correcting it is worse.
