I've met this bird. It only prioritizes issues as urgent; when interacted with, it'll say "yes, this is part of MVP"

Could be worse, mine have started saying "the MVP must be feature complete and 100% bug free" but there's a 0% chance there's enough budget for that.

The one in the manager's mind, that also isn't actually an MVP because sales over-promised and now you have to find a way to deliver.

Ahh, sales…

The best sales folks are the ones who promise customers things that are literally impossible (and I do mean literally, eg. promising something that essentially solves the halting problem). Those are always fun to sort out
