That seems like a very, very long-winded way of accusing them of "embrace, extend, extinguish"? Which is obviously not falsifiable, but just feels a bit trite at this point, IMO.

Doesn't have to be. It's been empiracally proven the case for MS time and again. How many times do you need it to happen because you treat it as the default?

Its trite until you have to explain to your boss why your editor brought down the business.
Things feeling trite isn't a counterargument, though.
