    Part of the Capitalist mythos for sure, “if you’re not growing, you’re dying.” There’s a rejection of the idea that you could reach a healthy equilibrium of size and just remain there.

    And because of the way the rest of the market works, it forces everybody to act like that or get beat out completely. Vicious feedback loops.
