Engineering and product are both important.

Without engineering, you don't have the capability.

Without product, you don't build something users are actually interested in.

I've seen too many engineering teams try to productize what they want, not what people not-them want, and then be flummoxed by lack of adoption.

Nothing sucks more than burning the midnight oil to nail a target... that ended up being 2m to the right of the actual target.
