Maybe. But IMO, it's usually much worse when studios try too hard to be edgy (violence, sex, whatever) and in the process they forget to put the effort into the story and characterization. More frequently, although certainly not always, a lower rating does not take anything away from the movie, while it's very rare that a higher rating actually adds something.

Nonetheless, I stand by my original point which was make a good movie first and worry about the rating later.

NAYRT, but I think it’s highly dependent on the movie genre. Horror and thrillers, for example, tend to suffer terribly when they’re forced into a lower rating because the studio is forced into anticlimactic off-screen deaths and an over abundance of jump scares to try and bring back the lost tension. Movies based on actual events often shouldn’t be toned down to PG-13, out of respect for the subject matter. Things don’t always need to be sanitized for tween consumption.

God damn those tweens - they ruin everything!

Of course things are context-dependent. I stand by my stance that ratings =/= quality, and that the movie should determine the rating, rather than deciding on a rating first and trying to fit a movie into that.
