I just meant I notice I feel a lot less freedom after initial release. When I haven't released something yet, I can wipe and recreate the database at any time, move, rename etc. as I want to try things out. Once I've released though, changes become significantly more painful and risky. Perhaps a migration is a few hours tops but that's compared to a few minutes tops when you don't have active users yet and when you're a solo developer each hour is a significant amount of your productivity.

Well, there's no arguing with that. And it usually doesn't matter if you have 2 or 200000 users, the migration has to be perfect - and automated - anyway :)
