Why? What do you mean by "the market can afford"?
- hjhffyuu57 3y agoDifficult to calculate that given lock-in. If you've outsourced everything infrastructure related, you aren't in the same market without substantial upfront investments being made. Amazon/Google/Microsoft/IBM et al. all know this, it's why there are significant incentives if they know you can walk.

Personally, I find the ballgame price exploitive, but the food truck has added a bunch of convenience (and a few pennies of refrigeration cost) and that's worth paying $0.85 extra to a lot of people.
