**A Question About Inclusion**

The recommendation in “Early Customer Feedback: Prioritizing the Decisions That Matter” may be useful for experienced or well-resourced participants but difficult for beginners or low-resource groups.

A stronger design would provide minimum, standard and advanced versions of the next action.

**Question:** How can this idea remain ambitious while becoming realistic for people with fewer resources?

**A Constructive Counterpoint**

One possible weakness in discussions about “Early Customer Feedback: Prioritizing the Decisions That Matter” is the tendency to prioritize speed before confirming that the real problem has been correctly defined.

Moving quickly on the wrong diagnosis can create activity without progress.

A short diagnostic review may reduce later corrections and improve the quality of the final decision.

**A Small Experiment with High Learning Value**

The idea in “Early Customer Feedback: Prioritizing the Decisions That Matter” can be tested at a limited scale.

Define the people involved, the action to test, the maximum resources allowed and one outcome that would count as evidence.

The experiment should be large enough to reveal a real constraint but small enough to stop safely.
