Because a poorly-documented product that does something, is much better than a well-documented product that does nothing.

Engineers have to decide where to spend their time, and taking time away from feature development when your early-stage product doesn't have many features is not a winning move.

True, but if it’s too early for a good documentation then talking about taking someone’s crown is too early as well.
