But until the marriage with the Rolls Royce Merlin, the Mustang was so so at altitude.

It only took 120 days from start to flight for the Mustang. That plane was designed and built by a generation of engineers who had already brought two dozen new fighter aircraft designs into service within the span of a single decade. We don't have that kind of talent today.
