- ramesh31 5y ago>There are more dimensions than popular appeal. In the context of a consumer product, not really. Everything is always a tradeoff to optimize for multiple factors.

Their product is what the market wants, with enough acceptable tradeoffs to operate at a scale that fulfills demand. tl;dr: The customer is always right.
