I dislike and object to the scope of this device as much as the author. It's not a popular view, but I hope Teenage Engineering is acquired by a very large company soon so that they can be relegated to functioning somewhere as a harmless novelty devision. This way they will get a big pay day and be treated like a prize, while their influence to create proprietary devices for the landfill is effectively quashed. |

I don’t think that’s a common outcome of being “acquired by a very large company”.
Very large companies tend to only run large projects, even if they run them as hobbies. They simply cannot have small divisions.
As a simple example, if BigCo made this thing, they’d want to translate it in a gazillion languages, vet it for not stepping on some country’s or minority’s toes, set up support pages, have their IP lawyers go over it, etc.
