RE: If You Give A User A Feature
I don't know if I would base project management on a children's book, but there are certainly allegories in fables that can be salient and insightful.

Beta testers aren't children asking for a cookie. Usually, they're serious users, customers and sometimes potential clients. They're focusing their time to help improve your product. Feature requests, many times, lead to major development improvements. Don't beta test if that suits you better. This applies to Steemit as well.
I think you are conflating things a bit. I didn't mention beta testers in my post.
While some feature requests will lead to product improvements, most do not. They can be major distractors.
Also, the story is about a mouse asking for a cookie. In this allegory, the child is the product manager.
