Well, I get the the idea of what you&#x27;re trying to say but really healthy competition is not something that gets turned on and off in an instant. I&#x27;ve noticed, for example, osx &quot;seems&quot; less reliable than what it was say with snow leopard and I don&#x27;t see any healthy competition that tries to address this. It will take ages before a lot of people realize this and shift away causing healthy competition. At least with an ideal democratic government this cycle is some four long and can be quantitatively measured.
