The author spends an entire article demonstrating that he or she does not understand what an MVP is, then proceeding to tell us about a new invention that is, in fact, an MVP.

Newsflash - an MVP is not a piece of shit. It's the simplest version of the product that solves the problem.

It seems "Simple, Lovable and Complete" is the authors context specific meaning of the Viable in MVP

It also seems really dumb, to me, for incorporating "Love" into a business/engineering product/project stage-of-development naming convention.

Any good business person or engineer understands that objective, unbiased, un-emotionally attached decisions and validations are antithetical to subjective, biased emotions such as "love".
