## why it's a gotcha
-this is perfectionism disguised as product sense. each "just one more feature" feels reasonable in isolation, but they compound into an infinite loop. the real reason you're not launching is fear — fear that it's not good enough, fear of negative feedback, fear of finding out nobody cares. features are a way to delay facing that.
+this is perfectionism disguised as product sense. each "just one more feature" feels reasonable in isolation, but they compound into an infinite loop. the real reason you're not launching is fear — fear that it's not good enough, fear of negative feedback, fear of finding out nobody cares. features are a way to delay facing that. this is the execution-level version of the [[over-planning-trap]] — same avoidance, different flavor.
## the fix
-set a launch date and stick to it. not a "we'll launch when it's ready" date — an actual calendar date. cut any feature that isn't done by then. launch with less than you're comfortable with. the feedback from real users is worth more than any feature you could add in isolation.
