When Better Doesn’t Matter
How would candles work should companies that make candles try to compete with light bulbs; an invention that, without a doubt, immensely shrank their profits?

But to make the most of that, one must look for the things that makes them unique, not cheap tactics to “kill” one’s competitors, or to fight newer
technology.
Light bulbs, though “better” than candles, can never give one a candle lit dinner.
(As a matter of fact, a candle lit dinner would not be so “romantic,” should light bulbs have not been.)
