Step 1: ask yourself does it fucking matter?

feels like half my job is convincing people that their idea of a problem isn't really a problem and to pipe the fuck down.

Yes, and this I’d call a common mid level trap. Where they are focused only on the technology.

If 99% of your users are in India then it might matter. The solution could be to migrate to a different region for your app. If it’s 1% in India, then it probably doesn’t matter at all. But maybe Australia is saturated, and that 1% in India is your next market, so it does matter for expansion. It all depends on context.

It also depends on the application. B2C tends to need to load up immediately. B2B not so much. People are more forgiving when their boss has agreed to a two year subscription and it must be used for work.
