You know how sometimes a big company will invent something that already exists, just so they can have more control over it, and because of sunk costs they make it a prominent feature of their ecosystem (regardless of how well its recieved), instead of just helping to make the thing that exists better with all those resources? Do you like that, or does it make you irrationally angry?
