Why is everything with B a bubble?

Its revenue went from $60M(2016) to $170M(2019) [1]. In 2019, it reported over 45 million learners on its platform. It is adding enterprise customers at a steady pace [2].

A conservative estimate of 250 million revenue in 2020 puts it at 10x revenue. This is pretty normal for a SAAS company that is growing 50% y/y.
