If you're not willing to use the products you make, then how can you expect anyone else to use them.

That's a short-sighted argument. Should a car manufacturer not employ someone who could do a useful job for them, just because that person lives in a big city and uses public transport to get to work? Should medical treatments be created only by people suffering the ailment that they treat?

Sometimes solving someone else's problem is enough.

Should they not? No. Did/do they? Probably. Most people working at Ford own and drive cars, and they're almost all Fords. My understanding is that this has relaxed a bit over the years, but... working at GM and not driving a GM car was considered a mortal sin years ago.
