"so much is at stake" is the reason companies hire someone to do it.
- WhitneyLand 10y agoHow is that relevant? Does it mean if the stakes are high it's impossible to overpay so don't question it? People paid through the nose for IBM PCs because a lot was at stake. But not because IBM actually lessened their risk, but because it took a little time before people realized they were leaving money on the table unnecessarily.
