Upvoted because, dang, that’s on the ball. Most geeks know the value of everything and the cost of nowt. Especially those costs measured in risk, be it risk of a code exploit in some mature stable part of the OS that almost nobody uses, or the risk of ceding a trillion-dollar primary market to competitors while preoccupied chasing secondary tails. Having blown my first startup by sloppy unfocused mismanagement, I can attest to this lesson the hard way. (And yeah, the only reason Macs still exist is because Apple has to protect the whole productivity ecosystem that puts Apps in its iOS Store. ’Cos the moment it cedes that foundation to a competitor, the whole company is lost.)
