Your point is true, but as many trillion dollar businesses have been created with the "hey look at this cool tech!" school of thinking as the "focus on problems" school of thinking. Google thought they'd sell to Yahoo before they hit pay dirt.

It's a crap shoot, pal ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Zero "trillion dollar businesses" were created with the "hey look at this cool tech!" school of thinking. There are 6 "trillion dollar" companies by market cap (terrible measurement but whatever), and every single one of them was founded with a specific market in mind.
