Thanks to both replies. There's certainly a time and place for refactoring, as there is a time and place for getting an MVP out the door. I guess striking a solid balance is the art of it all. I am very transparent with business goals and the threats we face, and I do think that spurs the most engagement. It could be my rose colored glasses, but it does seem like everyone truly feels a sense of ownership and pride in the product. As someone who is very hands-on though, it's very scary not having full awareness of what's going on under the hood. However, I'm sure I can overcome that mental hurdle. I appreciate the feedback/advice HN.
