Yes I think so. I'm very focused on delivering business value as soon as possible. There is often a lull after the first version where the biz endless discusses and re-evaluates everything. I use this as time to learn. Of course, the next time around you start from the new point and learn something else to make things better/faster/automated.
Now I'm at a point that I really don't do what I suggested, becz it's all second nature. However I think for early founders (especially with not much runway), that investment in time can be a time sink where they are thinking they are in motion, but it might not be that important for the short term.
In my experience, short term user feedback is important as the number of very early pivoting I've experienced (at startups) is frankly ridiculous. Sounds like you did things more grown-up than I experienced.
