You know, i would say no. I would actually like to thank softbank for taking the risks that it did, as it should be a very interesting business study to look at what, and how, they did what they did. They made collosal mistakes/mis-judgements, sure - but look at how much can be learned from what they have done. I would like to know even more about all the details of what they have done. I would like to see if i could learn - even for just the acedemic aspect of it - all the mistakes they made, their reasonings behind what decisions they made etc. Its a fascinating study, if you think about it. Look at the companies we are talking about they failed upon; uber, we-work and oyo are mentioned just in this HN thread. All of which are “household names” to silicon valley. Recall the articles about how OYO was “revolutionizing what we thought of hotels.... Man, that guy/company got mad press praise. So, i want to learn as much as i can about everything softbank did.
