well there is something wrong if you want the company to be run well. if leaders of a company are selected by any other trait than merit, then the company will under-perform. if the company has a monopoly, that means a long and drawn out period of that particular market not achieving what it could or maybe even damaging peoples lives if the market is important.

That's not the point of control. Think of it as the company selecting their CEOs as any other company would, but the family that owns the company setting guidelines, like, even if we could use our tech in military projects as well, we're not going to get involved in military projects. They don't run the day to day business, but give them guidelines.
Right, so hedge your bets on unborn spawn. That’s the best we can do to steer a ship in the right direction for future generations.
