From your point of view, does using telemetry have downsides? No concept of misleading info or bad product development direction from using it?

>does using telemetry have downsides?

The main downside is the extra work and cost of getting it all set up, properly cleaning up unneeded telemetry, and making sure telemetry itself doesn't cause performance issues.

Telemetry doesn't replace a strong protect sense, but without telemetry you are flying blind.

Do you work in game development? I've heard similar things before in that area, and it kind of makes sense for that specific use case.
