Love HashiCorp, though not sure what to think about Sales&Marketing to R&D ratio, which is 2:1 (141kk vs 65kk in 2021). Maybe people who read S1s more often can tell if this a normal ratio? Seems pretty high to me.

Why is marketing cost so high, relatively to the other parts of operating expense? What "exactly" are the marketing costs?
