>> No one knows the right answer

Hmmmm. Be careful about this. Lots of people do know the right answer.

These days age and experience count for a lot. Lots of older people have incredibly valuable answers to common challenges in competing and business.

I personally view this as less DK and more just removing fences[1] until the externalizations blow up. By then you've probably moved on or can divert some profit to putting the fences back.
