Ideally:

how much of this can I automate so it just purrs like a kitten for as long as possible

Realistically:

how quickly can I satisfy these stupid fucking product requirements without incurring so much tech debt that it makes my job soul-destroying?

Shouldn't it be the other way around?

I am intrigued. Could you elaborate on this with some examples?

Not the same person, but I assume they mean the release being the hypothesis (“this version will do what we want”) and people using it to be the experiments testing the hypothesis

My understanding is that an example of a hypothesis, is that users want a feature. The experiment is putting that feature in front of users, or performing user research, which which then allows you to validate if a hypothesis is true or not.
