Agreed. Having worked at a few early stage start-ups and in product, this is a topic that fascinates me.
The number of people I see building product before they talk to a single customer astounds me. I'd really like to understand the psychology of it. Building for scale is doubling down on this behavior. Not only do you not know if your customers will like it, you scaling something people don't potentially want.
