A few days ago there was a Medium post from the founder of GumRoad where he talked about companies create value but only ever capture a small portion of it. Combined with this post, I think there is an argument for always doing whatever creates the most overall value between the company and its users. Worry about capturing it later (as long as you can survive) but if a choice increases the company's overall value creation, it is probably the right choice. It makes a simple decision out of many complicated scenarios.
- chdaniel 8y agothx for the comment. yep, it's exactly about worrying about how to capture the value later. but through equality of opportunity, more often than not it will make its way to you (this captured value) as I mentioned in the article, it might be hard to grasp for someone who didn't experience it
