Yes, we have a lot of things supported by surplus. All research is one example.

I don't think my comment implies that at all. I'm not convinced it'll ever grow that large though. See: Content is not king [1] for a good explanation of why.

What am I underestimating? I agree it is an important issue; my comment is orthogonal to it though.
