Why not fork instead of pivot?

Why do we have to do this other thing too, instead of having a subsidiary that does that other thing?

Is it because we've vastly overestimated the power of the network effect?

That wasn’t a fork though. Qwikster was Netflix separating itself into two distinct businesses with very different offerings (movies by mail vs streaming).
