How much of that 2000 hour was spent on the core experience, the meetings screen? How much of the work that wasn’t spent on the meetings screen had to be reworked due to changes with the meeting screen? How many times has the meetings screen been shown to prospective customers?
On my end, probably 50%. I've logged ~200 hours on that screen and the surrounding components.
But I get your point; that should've been almost the only focus. I did was time with tech, build, code quality, release automation, ci, code formatting, git workflows, project organization, lazy loading, and whatnot. It all adds up and eats time that I didn't realize I didn't have to spend in the first place.
