I'm guessing that there's just a younger audience, now. We'd just been off the back of two decades of MS buying everything it got near, it was just what the done thing was. Instagram was taking serious oxygen away from facebook at the time; the buyout wasn't so much an "everyone knows it" but almost an inevitability.

The historical case that time erased is that early app store, apps were exploding and disappearing just as quickly and the eventual "zero-risk" on network apps was enormous at the time. Everyone agreed with the trajectory, but no one had consensus on the permanence.
