I don't buy it. People don't want products or vision, people want to be a certain way or do certain things.

People's wants are a separate concept from the things that can satisfy their wants.

Can you help me understand how that differs from a product (math or idealistic)? Trying to see if Iām missing something.

A carpenter doesn't want a quarter inch drill bit, they want a quarter inch hole. The benefits/impact/outcomes are what people want. The way they want to be, the goals they want to accomplish, jobs to be done, tasks to complete. It's the progress and avoidance of friction (things they don't want to do).

That's the key to the insight. If you're focused on what people really want you can invent things people will buy and you will better understand your competition.
