maintainability is arguably not a value-added for the end user. But still absolutely important. Robustness of code is arguably not visible to an end-user, until it fails. And that's very important. Features are great, but quality is still important and is basically the mortar between the bricks that are features. Only caring about features leads to poorly written applications.
Less chance of security vulnerabilities, breaches, less bugs fixed more permanently, faster features, etc
Those things all sound like value adds for the end user…
