Prototype work and production work solve related problems, but they are not the same problem.
A prototype proves fit and manufacturability. Production has to prove repeatability, schedule alignment, and supply stability over time.
Speed of learning, quick validation, and identifying geometry risks usually matter more than process efficiency at this stage.
Once the part moves into repeat demand, setup discipline, inspection priorities, documentation, and release planning become much more important.
Projects tend to move more smoothly when the first sample is built with at least some awareness of what repeat manufacturing will require later.
