I'm guessing those Meals in Boxes as a Service you can subscribe to, where they drop a bunch of calorically deficient, bland, starvation-level meal packs at your doorstep in the middle of the night, and you're supposed to survive

We're talking about SaaS businesses anyway. Open Source doesn't really matter there - you never actually know what's running on their servers.

Indeed. All software products you can get your hands on are open source - compiled code is only little more difficult to read than source code, but not that much if you learn how. Which is why ~all companies switches to offering software

That's a fair objection and I often feel like this, too. On the research aspect, I see this as something pre-Research, yet still science - in a way, it's science at its core: trying something and seeing what happens. Proper Resear
