> Genuine question - what is the lesson that you think should have been learned? There are other competitors in the space (Beaglebone Black, for example) who got starved of oxygen because the RPi ecosystem dumped below-cost boards into the market. Even worse, some of those competitors (Beaglebone Black, again) are, in fact, more open source that the RPi ever was. The lesson to be learned: Beware of subsidized ecosystem dumping below cost. The party will eventually stop and then you will be left with nothing because of all the alternatives that you let get driven out of the market.
