Y'alls be talking about different things.

You're talking about "feature minimalism is a good design philosophy".

The other dudes are talking about "bridging the gap between a sweet demo and a final product is a tremendous assload of work".

No, I'm specifically just saying that not everyone's "final product" is the same thing, and depending on the target market and audience, a minimal product may be worthwhile, and the economic value isn't always "close to 0", as the parent I replied to stated.

Also, I don't think that "feature minimalism is a good design philosophy" is always true, even though it may guide you well in most cases.
