My advice to anyone with similar concerns: get your SEO and other optimizations in the best order you know how, then turn your energies to other promotions.

Re profitability of social traffic ... in my experience it makes a big difference whether it comes from your own efforts to gin up social traffic or comes from users sharing your products with their friends. The latter has much higher value.

Make it easy for users to share your stuff.

Way back on WMW in the era when Goigle updates could feel like a whipsaw, the refrain was, "If your business depends entirely on Google, you don't have a long-term business."

Over time people have forgotten that lesson. I still see so many people whose only online presence is Instagram. I can across one a couple days ago. I forget but think he's a coach. No website. All his lead gen is IG and X.
