>Issues that affect a few users are not worth spending almost any time on.
This is a good way to ensure that your software is only ever 90% done though. There will always be issues that affect only a few users since no two users are exactly the same, and usually so many of them that almost *all* users see a few of them.

This is kind of a warning to not bite off more than you can chew. Work on something small and well defined that can be done well rather than something expansive that you'll never have the resources to get past 90% done. When you are in that perpetual 90% state you have an advanced hobby and not a decent product.
