Except there is no winning move as an IC in pushing back against a half baked product definition that lacks business rigor. I pushed back in my org against features whose unit economics didn't add up, and I was labeled not a team player, leading to negative professional development. One year later, the entire ML org was laid off because investors lost confidence in our ability to produce a sustainable business model. There is no fix as an IC for unsophisticated product and business leadership.
