It makes sense, but at the same time, it is worth mentioning that sometimes, for any reason, the user experience, the functionality, and the sales story do not align perfectly. It is not ideal, but sometimes it is the only way to keep the business running, and it can still be an MVP if the goal is to align these in the future. The problem is when all three are disconnected irreversibly, and I agree with you.
I think you're not wrong with regard to an existing business. Here I'm more focused on building a the initial version of a product. Which in that case the business isn't running yet 😉
