Perhaps there are some professions and practices where perfection is essential. First thought: surgeons. Practice is essential to perfecting technique because the outcome, in the case of surgery, need be as close to perfect as possible. In this case, the desired outcome of practice is perfection, or as close to it as possible.
In the case of mindfulness meditation, however, practice is just that, practice. And...thank goodness! What a relief to know we are not being asked to take away, fix or add on to anything. Just be where you are and as you are. Letting practice be practice.
