On the one hand I agree but on the other hand it’s really much easier to be a follower and avoid the mistakes the pioneers have made. I am pretty sure there are a ton of legacy things in the Uber platform that are obsolete now and you wouldn’t have to implement if you stated from scratch. But you would also probably run into the same issues that Uber took many years to solve and you probably also would need years. So many be the advantage of being second isn’t as much as thought initially. I often think SpaceX was able to move that quickly because they could learn from decades of experience of NASA and others what works and what doesn’t.
