It is not uncommon that those who prefer to work or learn in a solid and therefore usually slow way are being called as stubborn, and those in a fast-pacing but non-solid way as smart. I wonder how you would express such phenomenon? Does English have some words and/or fixed phrases for this purpose? Thanks!

This seems like a description of the tortoise and the hare. The 'problem', from your point of view, is that the tortoise won the race, and so showed the superiority of working slowly but doggedly.
