The problem is, I think, one of dilution. Even if you still know what P is, you're not solving it well.
G(P) is going after a larger market than P, but is doing so with a diffuse focus on the general case. A specific solution that meets customers' needs much better for P is often disregarded on the way to something that more comfortably fits every case of G(P) but not P or P's siblings particularly well.
