Your argument is the company can pivot post-IPO to something it's never done and it's magically a successful tech company? I feel like you didn't read the arti

  But the thing that “never done” is not some technology. How this will change the status of WeWork as a tech company or not? Also I wouldn’t call it pivot, their users even don’t have to notice a thing. They can do it concurrently. Pretty much like McDonalds owning some of the restaurants and providing franchises to the rest.

    It would be closer in alignment with what was defined as a tech company. The article is pretty explicit defining the features of a tech company. WeWork isn't. Saying they could do something that would fit some of those characteristics and it's easy doesn't magically make it true. If McDonalds is so easy, how come everyone else isn't as globally prevalent? It's not easy. It's competitive as hell. It's a completely different model. But you're not making arguments in good faith, you're just being intentionally dense.
