Combined, the lesson here seems to be this:
* Asking permission for something new will tend to get you squashed.
* If you're big enough, popular enough, and rich enough, you can work around this.
* If someone else fails at that approach, you might get in in an arbitrarily regulated way some time later.
I can see where some might like this lesson! Though personally, I think there might be some opportunity for improvement.
