Where Bill Albert, breaks down why "annoying" and "painful" are not the same problem.


Annoyance says that'd be nice to fix. Pain says I need this now, and I'll pay for it.


The tell isn't the complaint. It's what happens next, does someone shrug it off, or do they keep circling back, act on it, pay for it? That's the line between a feature people'd like and a problem they'll actually buy their way out of. Watch till the end for more insights, then tell me: what's a "nice to have" you almost mistook for real pain?
