If you bring in a product early you don't logically extend it's lifecycle. You just launch it earlier. Which means your replacement product may well come in earlier as well. So you get your money earlier, but not really more of it. Scott

You mention that "Agile development uses an approach of incremental delivery to deliver a partially-completed product to market earlier." This isn't quite correct. Instead, agile development uses an approach of incremental delivery to deliver the most valuable pieces of the product first. If the product owner decides to take it to market in a partially completed status, that is fine. The goal of agile isn't to "deliver a partially-completed product". It is to deliver the product that the owner wants, but with the most valuable pieces first. I have to disagree with you on one point.
