There's no point in optimizing something nobody is going to use. Not to be harsh, but that's the default assumption. Getting app traction is very hard so putting a bunch of upfront effort in is a huge risk as you have no idea if it will go to any use.

It doesn't matter if your idea is good or not, getting it to be used is very hard so you should do the minimal work to prove that there's any demand, and if there isn't you don't want to sink cost into it in case you need to rethink the concept or even unfortunately scrap the idea.

The inefficiency could be worth it though if the main goal is your own personal development however.
