No, no, this is a worthwhile point to make. Whether selling used cars, life-saving surgery or hiring young hackers for awful pay, information asymmetry can you give you a sizable advantage by itself.
Reading about a system like the RUC is a really good demo of this. To an outsider it might seem the strict confidentiality could be excused for preventing lobbyist influence - yet it also gives free rein to avoid media and public scrutiny in the light of day.
