> You don't intentionally buy food at the most expensive store just to make the store more sustainable/profitable, do you?

I do, actually, because I want my local natural foods co-op to stay in business.

But your point still stands. The alternatives aren't actually comparable, because they're for-profit entities, and I don't want my food budget going to them.

It's one thing to support your local grocer and totally different to support a company with multiple millions in VC funding, especially when they company doesn't even offer you much advantage (Lisp features)
