Well put. Concise.
I will quibble though on the "now we can slow down and optimize them" part.
What's happening in practice is that those startups who "lucked" into successes playing the risky-but-many game of mobile & internet technology... those startups now focus on defending their "moats" and optimising their revenue streams.

- netcan 7y agoIn the spirit of quibbling: Moat: from Medieval Latin mota: “a mound, hill, a hill on which a castle is built, castle, embankment, turf” In the spirit of mixed metaphors: </checkmate> business catchphrase for the 20s: stock your hill with crocodiles
