> No, but they have the scale where that level of specialty makes sense. McDonald's has food chemists on staff, but the local burger joint does not.

Now they do, they didnt always, you have to start from somewhere, you always start small you dont just become a huge company instantly. Also wtf kind of an analogy is that ? Oh yeah chemists never innovate on your own or at a small scale we have big corpos doing it so you guys can stop now thanks

I think you have heard the rather famous quote "Its better to be a pirate than join the navy", small scale stuff can move a lot lot faster than some huge conglomerate.

I agree that not everyone needs to roll their own design but i think your conclusion is rather idiotic.
