This looks suspiciously similar to lifecycle of a social media, especially how they grow new features and eventually dies when users migrate.
Maybe it's a viable strategy for a social media, mobile OS, MMORPG, anything aaS to not explain features or educate users, but to grow as users consume added mechanics, until it becomes impossible for new users to catch up and old users to keep up?
