Step back and take a look at that statement again.
If you put too little time into it, it'll spark questions - about you, and your process, and the lack of completeness.
If you put too much time in, it'll also spark questions about your productivity; or it will overwhelm the audience and put them into that sort of compliant/bored state where they somewhat shut down and don't engage.
There's an art to answering just enough potential questions while leaving room for people to feel like they're contributing, which builds engagement and really helps turn bored listeners into real stakeholders.
