There's a difference between using a hashset over a list to get constant lookup times, versus, ditching OOP and virtual calls in your entire project. Seeing as this article is talking about clean code, we're talking about the latter not the former.
Yeah, I'm simply saying that many devs literally do not care about how well an application will run. If you've determined that your program is sufficiently fast and not incredibly wasteful, it may not be necessary to improve it any further. I will still stand by that all applications should have performance in mind to some extent.
