This can be mitigated, as if Stacker offer the top 5 a massive licence discount compared to big enterprisey tools, so they're making more profit on the same result, then they'll pick it. And for the big enterprisey solutions that are built in an old, expensive way, they won't be able to compete on price for long, which could be interesting.

That is an interesting approach.

Not to be overly cynical, but part of the appeal of a large expensive system that "everyone" uses is that you feel better writing that large check. "Nobody gets fired for hiring IBM."
