Depends on what your overall goal is with what you're building. Is it to rush out as many features as you possible can, before VC-funding falls through the floor so you too can get a slice of the pie before the party is over? Or are you "retired" in your 30s and now have time to build the perfect software for you? Do you need to publish and release an experiment to see how people react to it or use it, before you can know if it's the right thing or not?

Almost everything needs to be contextualized before you can even begin to answer what the right way forward is, depends so heavily on what situation you're in.
