Good. UX and 'product management' has moved from beauty and clarity to darkpatterns and psychological exploits. If you have a valuable product, it should stand on its own as valuable. If you have to engage in deceptive practices, you're just accelerating your journey towards enshittification and destroying your brand equity. I guess that's fine for short-term gain/pump-and-dump, but it's unethical. I'd rather die poor and honest, than rich and full of regret.
