Wouldn’t “Fast. Cheap. Good. Pick Two.” Have Been Enough?

Was it really necessary to explain the implications in the sign shown below?

Overly wordy sign: “Good - Cheap - Fast, you can pick any two. Good service cheap won’t be fast. Good service fast won’t be cheap. Fast service cheap won’t be good.”Overly wordy sign: “Good - Cheap - Fast, you can pick any two. Good service cheap won’t be fast. Good service fast won’t be cheap. Fast service cheap won’t be good.”
Found via Reddit.

(Anyone heard the similar rule about girlfriends? “Smart. Sexy. Sane. Pick two.”)
