Trying to pick the best policies can result in not seeing the bigger picture and sometimes worse policies can help over all.
An example of this is redecorating a room all at once or gradually by buying new stuff. When having an image of what you want your room to be like individual elements may not seem good on their own but work over all, buying items one by one can result you spending more for the best items and they may not work together.
Imagine creating the most beautiful face one group A just picks the best looking person and group B picks the best parts of other peoples faces, best nose, best mouth, best eyes. Without seeing it in context it can be difficult to see will it work over all, the eyes maybe the best over all but do they suit the mouth?
If you were going to make a defence against pragmatism one point could be that its it wastes time deciding each individual aspect were you will likely make mistakes, not see the bigger picture and waste time not working on other things.
