I agree. Product managers can build a kind of product instinct or product sense. If you combine that with data, results are best. That's why "data-driven" is not the best approach. A "data-informed" approach uses data and combines it with a strong, opinionated product manager's product sense.
If you don't have strong instincts and aren't opinionated, you're just regurgitating the data - hard to differentiate that way, because everyone sees the same data.
