What about all the trades people that own their own small businesses? Like some young guy with a grass mowing business?

That hive is too small to matter. Kind of like I don't really concern myself with all of the wildlife in Australia that would like to eat me. It doesn't affect me in the least day to day.

Amazon was once a small business. It's possible to grow that hive but the vast majority get exterminated.

Tradespeople with businesses are still pretty much tradespeople. At a small business the owner is basically a foreman

It’s rare that those businesses scale to the point of where your role is purely abstract management layers removed from the front line workforce.
