Sure, one counterpoint, or at least nuance, is when you give too much focus to the wrong users. Then wrong users can oversteer your product. For example, BigCo wants Feature X and will pay $100k/year for it, you add it but it complicates the experience for others and delays the rest of your roadmap. Another is knowing when your users are wrong, they request Feature Y, but really what they want is Benefit Z. Of course there's also nuance around how exactly you define minimum viable product (i.e., the part built before you start exposing it to users). I've seen experienced non-startup business people describe an entire app with every feature that they envision, then claim that's the MVP. It can be a hard model to adjust to.
