Although you make a good point, you missed something: Nobody tries to intentionally break a taco bell drive through simply because they've got nothing better to do.
On the internet, this is common place. The key is not to miss that "hidden cost" while making your trade-offs. Remember reddit's plain text password fiasco? One of those can kill your company, and cost you millions.

Often times, intuition, experimentation, logic, and luck can help discover better alternatives that one wouldn't have found out had they not been "in the game"; e.g., the peculiar idea that pricing something too low can turn users off, and then finding out you have more orders when you increase the price.
