It's cyclical, but it's a virtuous cycle, not a tautology, as the article itself states:
"The only realistic way I know of to release software frequently is to start to release software frequently. You will probably fail the first few times you try. If your release process is painful, it will continue to be painful until you identify and eliminate the causes of the pain."

"Tautology" is too cute, cute enough to be misleading. I clicked through to the article expecting it to be some kind of rant about how you Should Never Release Software Before It Is "Done".
