“Not perfect” is a straw man because obviously nothing ever is perfect or 100% complete. When shipping something becomes the priority, then “obviously broken” stuff just gets re-dubbed “not perfect” which is exactly the problem. If your users are forced to use your platform because you mainly sell to CTOs who only need a list of checkboxes checked, and they strike a deal with you, then yeah. It’s a great business model to check as many boxes as possible, get that contract, then figure out what those boxes actually mean later. |

indeed, the concept of an "obviously broken" MVP is an oxymoron, since V stands for "viable"
when giving everybody everything they want becomes the priority, then "not perfect" stuff just gets re-dubbed "obviously broken" by 1 random person, which is actually the problem: it's better to ship something and get feedback and iterate on it than to ship nothing or to ship the wrong thing after a long development time or to ship at the end of however long it takes to satisfy everybody's desires
