Thanks, diddy ... great analogy.
But can't help wondering what the guy with the hammer gets out of it, since as I remember, PP&M never had one!
That is, if Paul or Mary -- 'or' not 'and', just one of the them, to keep it simple -- were to decide to manufacture the hybrid sitting platform, it would require those hammering services (or maybe glueing services). And if Peter didn't notice at first, not til Paul/Mary started selling them ... that's when problems would begin I'd think. It might even be a problem for a few periphery but essential folk, like the hammer or glue guy as well as the furniture shop selling them, no? A ripple effect, sort of.
