Interesting to note that two of your decision points are on "shipping product improvements at a regular cadence" or "shipping so slow that it's negatively impacting customers". Both relate to a productivity discussion, ie "how to define what it means to 'ship' as an engineering team". In that sense, we're aligned on why it's important to measure productivity. It would however be a mistake to try to optimize for maximum productivity in a vacuum, but note that this is not what this thread is about. This thread is about the unit of measurement that people use in their teams. In that sense it's purely a research / curiosity question
