    You’re right, but I think there’s a lot of overlap here. Large businesses are not laser-focused and are not rational actors.

    Someone pitched this as a way to make money. Someone believed that was plausible and approved it. But the motivation for even pitching it was likely a step or two removed from that.

    Executives and middle managers are not above bullshitting to justify their salaries.
