This is not how it works though: a product team shouldn't spend time working on this kind of details while big parts of the product are not good enough.

This is a bit ridiculous in practice. The reality is that products have many, many vectors of experience. Like a house does. If you have a broken window and a leaky pipe, you can hire 2 different people to fix both of those things separately...

  • Sure it's different teams, but the management at some level is common to the whole house, and if you choose to perfect the paint before fixing the pipes, it means something

It is designed by a studio. If they created the perfect car but used Times New Roman, then people would have said that it's ugly as hell.

  • I didn't imply that details are not important, just that first you need to have the perfect car, then the details, not the other way round
