The comment wasn't really in the spirit of HN, but it touches on an important point that gets little visibility.
Much of the current and next wave of new apps are aimed at enterprise (as startups move to markets where the money is).
There is a very high MVP threshold for enterprise.
When 37signals released the next version of Basecamp they took a lot of flack for not including time tracking in first rev (even though their metrics showed few people used it).
It is common in Enterprises to have senior players ready to point out any obvious issues in any recommendation. Apps looking to get in to this market have to recognise this feature of the market - it's just not the same as putting out a new social app.
