AFter 15 years, what could they possibly that would actually add to the bottom line? I mean, craigslist never seemed to add a single feature and yet they dominated for well over a decade and then some.

For some products, at some point it makes sense to hunker down and go into maintenance mode. Not every business can keep growing exponentially.

I agree with that. But you don't borrow 44 billion dollars from a bank to buy a company in maintenance mode.

I think Elon's vision is to make X an "everything platform" like they have in China. Someone is going to have to type in a lot of code to make that happen.
