    less is not more? - if I understood your context correctly, as in Mut zur Lücke is undesirable?

    Mind the gap.

    Um ein englisches Idiom zu liefern, das ähnlich weit verbreitet ist, wie das deutsche "Mut zur Lücke" - auch wenn die Bedeutung eine andere ist.

    this is a previous discussion to "Mut zur Lücke" that may or may not be helpful. My suggestion sounds a bit like someone with a jean phobia (it's hot up here too) but it might work.

    Fearing to bridge the gap?

    in der früheren Diskussion zu "Mut zur Lücke" wurde "brave the gap" favorisiert, es hört sich aber eher danach an, dass man eine Lücke überwinden muss/soll

    vielleicht muss man das Problem von der anderen Seite angehen, und eine Übersetzung für "man muss halt Prioritäten setzen" finden.

    I'm not sure if I'm ready for this presentation, but I'll just punt (or take a flyer, or wing it), and it'll go fine.

    The concept is to make the best of a situation for which one is insufficiently prepared.
