It's rhetoric that's as old as arguing on the internet c.f. "DEC didn't fail because the products were bad, it was the MARKETING".

Which is...not true. The fact that not enough people wanted DEC products might be a marketing issue, but more likely is that other companies made stuff that they wanted more.

It's like a last, desperate grab that's deployed when the argument has exhausted itself.
