I'm somewhat guilty of this when working on a desktop app. I made a state management library, though I realized I cannot possibly finish it in full so I spent only 100h on it to get it minimally working. I don't consider it a waste though. The waste was trying to come up with some kind of strict error handling ala Rust in TypeScript, I went far with this and got an idea to do it with minimal development, thankfully I pulled the plug on this after a month and went back to work. As a solo bootstrapper founder it's really hard to do development and business / marketing in the early stages. Focusing purely on development is preferable when time limited, however, I think it's sometimes helpful to stop development and take a break to spend on business / marketing - i.e. some education, or preparing marketing content for the future. This tends to put in perspective how much time sometimes is wasted on meaningless things and gives clarity on what is really important - shipping a quality product.
