It's almost like that's a consequence of not enforcing anti-trust vigorously enough, allowing capital to accrete in Big Tech, and creating extremely large tech companies whose primary innovation comes from acquiring rather than building.

Microsoft missing web and mobile.
Intel missing mobile and GPU.
Google missing productizing AI.
