"Should we really be developing features in response to misinformation?"

No, because you'll be held responsible for the misinformation being accurate: users will say it is YOUR fault when they learn stuff wrong.

Either the user is a non-paying user and it doesn't matter what they think, or the user is a paying customer and you will be happy to make and sell them the feature they want.

Focusing on creating high value for real customers instead of chasing people who aren't really interested is a great recipe for success. I wouldn't want to do business in any different way.
