It's really hard to design products by focus groups. A lot of times, people don't know what they want until you show it to them.

Nicholson, Diane E. and Schmidt, Richard A. (1991): Scheduling Information Feedback to Enhance Training Effectiveness. In: Proceedings of the Human Factors Society 35th Annual Meeting 1991. pp. 1400-1402.

If skill learning is evaluated in terms of performance on retention or transfer tests, recent evidence has shown that systematically reducing the frequency of augmented information feedback in training facilitates learning, as compared to practice with augmented feedback on every trial. However, in past experiments feedback frequency and scheduling have been confounded. In the present experiments, we separated these variables, showing that both reduced feedback frequency, and the particular scheduling of feedback presentations, are important variables for maximizing learning.
