It's not "lucky" when there were 100 satisfied customers for every complaint.

I'm opposed to waiting for a very clearly ready game to satisfy some nitpickers, especially when having the game in players' hands massively accelerates the testing timeline. If you wanted it a year late and "polished", you could have bought it a year later and had it "polished", without punishing everyone else over your unrealistic expectations. And you'd save money on top of it.
