That's not my experience at all and I've had a tankless system for over 15 years. The tankless water heater is basically a blast boiler. It heats water immediately then sends it through the system.
The home we're having built in The Villages does indeed have a recirculation pump along with a dedicated return line to circulate the hot water. Yes, we spec'd that and paid extra.
