Yeah, I lean towards the structure not being the cause of the outcome here (i.e. if you rotated the governance structure of Anthropic and OpenAI, I think the decisions at each would likely stay the same).

If they made that decision and it destroyed revenue, I could see an alternate timeline where a standard C-Corp + board with non-founder control may have ousted leadership. But that wasn't the situation for OpenAI or Google either, and their leadership still made a different decision.

I just like to ask one little question: Who chose the structure in the first place? It's kind of a chicken and egg situation.

Sure, but their question was whether different structure/governance would have changed that decision.
