My wife's sister is a paediatric oncologist in India. People come to her when their kids get sick, and she does her analysis and gives them a diagnosis, which might be that there is a fairly high probability that their child is going to die. Sometimes people go away and get Ayurvedic "treatments" for their child's cancer, which claims an efficacy of 100%. After those "treatments" have failed, the parents return, now with children who were much more sick than before, and often when there is nothing that can be done, and so they end up watching their children die. All of which to illustrate why even though this statement: > People don't sign over value to companies unless they value what they're getting in return. reads as convincing, when taken in isolation, it actually says very little when held up against the harsh light of reality. Optimising towards a stupid goal is still stupid.
