Pretty controversial take I have to say! I know a few founders who would read this and think: great, let's dive back into the editor, we've got (blind) conviction. I've been on the other side though, experimenting our heads off where in the end we lost all conviction. I now as a structure like to work with experiment cycles because it helps to focus on one thing at the time, and instead of build blindly, you're focussing more on the outcome you want to achieve with it (and how to do that in the smallest way). If you know as much as you do about startups, your conviction isn't blind and probably pretty informed and customer centric.
