I’m willing to agree on some points however, the for-profit model is what incentivizes the convolution in the first place. It has been the main driver for injecting complexity at every level. In turn, even nonprofits have to spend capital to make sense of it.

In other words, it does measurable harm to the entire industry and builds the moat wider in favor of the for-profits and shrinks the margins of the nonprofits trying to compete.
