Efficiency and maximization of result shouldn't be mutually exclusive, but maximizing result regardless of efficiency considerations as a short term goal is antithetical to efficiency.
Efficiency works from both ends, minimizing use of resources and minimizing requirements at the consumer end for a sensible desirable result. This includes accounting for the total cost of production, including minimizing waste and resourse displacements, a "global" accounting.
