> The problem is they've kept making it worse and worse to unanimous dissent

Where's your data on "unanimous dissent"? Also, there's often a silent majority of your products where people are totally happy with it and have zero complaints. You don't want to accidentally cater to the loud minority.

It's not as simple as saying "well, someones gonna be upset but we should do it anyway because we know better". Knowing exactly what most of your users want is hard for everyone, even google.

Yeah, it is. That's exactly what Google does. All the time.
