If those were the limits of the requirements, then yes. Your job is to fill the requirements while minimizing dev costs. Sometimes that means some compromises in latency, or other aspects of UI polish.
As a dev, that's understandable. As a user, it's annoying, and I'm going to look for any option that lets me do the same thing while avoiding the annoyance. The software has to provide an overwhelming benefit to make it worth my while (e.g. my laggy banking app that lets me remotely deposit a check).
Honestly, I don't know much about UX and customer engagement or how much it hurts a company if a customer waits to get to their PC to use a service, but it seems like a concern that's often downplayed when the requirements list is being written.
