There is a difference between acting fast and acting hastily, if you get what I mean.
Reminds me of a line I read elsewhere: "There is the long-short way, and the short-long way."
As for short-cuts... trying on purpose to be hasty? Aragorn's trip to the Paths of the Dead was not hasty in that sense. Trying to make life easier? It means developing new things, which isn't always bad (eg I can't say that rubbing two sticks together is better that having a box of matches with you.)
