Raspberry Pi is now a public company
I never get why people think this does exist. If it did, wouldn’t every company be obliged to get out of the business they’re in and start doing what would be most profitable right now? Obviously that would be absurd.

Switching gears is expensive, and if every company switched to "the most profitable thing" it wouldn't be profitable.
This automatically prevents them from mindlessly switching.

Yes, that’s part of why it is absurd.
