Mostly agree. I recently caught up with Peter from Journey.io for an interview and he mentioned exactly this. Something along the lines of "the era of janky MVPs is over." There's certainly a balance of shipping an MVP and shipping crap. I think if you routinely ship crap, or things that are subpar, for the sake of speed, users will start to associate all of your work with crap.

I think maybe I saw it on Indie Hackers but there was a term I liked for this evolution in customer expectations called MAP, Most Awesome Product. While weirdly named, it’s the base product required for potential customers to go, “Wow, that’s awesome we need that.”
