This feels like an argument about definitions. When supply is decreased prices increase. That's basic Econ.

Now, another point to make would be about possible output versus labor costs. Ie SV will employ labor in close relationship to the output of that labor and the cost of it. Once those two values equate there is no more (efficient) demand for labor available.

That's Econ theory land though. I think this is much more about profit margins and market inefficiencies.
