This hits at the key challenge with creating an MVP - how do you avoid ending up with minimal functionality that doesn't provide any delight? If your MVP doesn't have enough to inspire use (let alone love) how will you learn enough for the next iteration?
You are able to capture something that I have thought about for years. It really plays into not just adoption, but retention of users. The MVP might get you some adopters. The MLP gets you users for life.
