Next best, or same thing? Putting money in the hands of investors generally leads to investment.
Dividends and buybacks are sort of an investment into your infrastructure, because the money goes through your investors into investments in the same general area.

Returning money to shareholders in this way is what you do when you cannot grow TAM and cannot grow profits with investment.
