It's not clear that you understand the question you are answering. The "product" being referred to here is a centuries-old concept. There is nothing about pivot tables themselves that Microsoft would need to reverse engineer.

This will continue to be a problem as long as infinite throwaway accounts are permissible. "Assume good faith" falls apart when the commenter is so obviously lying for fake internet points. Mods are asleep.

> Wasn't that a reaction to users who refused to pay for games and just sideloaded them instead? No. That was a minuscule number of people. It was a reaction to Candy Crush making insane amounts of money using casino mechanics.

No, what's being described is a non-decision, of which there is an infinite amount. (I'm not making most of them right now!) You took "not making a bad decision" to mean "making a good decision", but there is a

I see now that the "this story" you were referring to was the Tokyo Disneyland one, but now I am confused about why you answered in the negative and without explanation to the obvious followup question about your lions. Are they f

The story is confusing to Americans because the concept that is depicted as shockingly different to us as a population is actually not. The lion attraction down the street from me also features a ditch as a barrier between humans and lions.
