Call me 'lunatic', but I think ‘Microsoft’ is the perfect example to
counter your argument. They pack the bugs with each releases, while some
of the best (and perfect) things have never gained any such approval of
the market.

But don't get me wrong - I am pro-user, but I am pro-customer too. At
times, design decisions are more strategic than straight line. And I give
enough benefit of doubt to those who pays me for 'design' and keeps
responsibility of their users themselves.
