userbase values form over function

any stats? I'd say it's the opposite. It would seem to me people want things to work, first and foremost.

Both form and function are equally as important

This contradicts the previous statement, if your userbase is your first priority.

It is important to test these kind of assumptions. That's the reason why A/B testing and other analytics tools are used(not to mention communicating with the end user).
