You can't say that some outcomes are zero sum and other outcomes are not. By the very fact that there are different possible outcomes proves it is not a zero sum game.

> Imagine startup fails or is acquired at decreased valuation: will be it zero sum or not?

It's not zero sum, the total sum changed over time as the company lost value. Non zero sum doesn't mean "value only goes up"

> Percentage wise everybody wins, both Labor and Capital (so called not zero sum game), in absolute terms however the distribution tells a different story.

Thank you for conceding my point. It is a non zero sum game. There's an argument to be made about that employees are not given their fair share of RSUs or options, but that is a wholly separate argument/debate and you weaken your point by trying to say it's a zero sum game.
