  Were those success stories of actual benefit to society? Both companies had notoriously terrible business practices and were for the most part loathed by their own customers. In the '90s, Sprint was somewhat famous for rampant billing errors to the tune of 4 or 5 digits and then fighting people in court for it.

      I'm not moving any goalposts, I'm saying that's a shitty measure of success. Keeping a company from failing is not a virtuous act.
