Strikes happen when the trust is already burned. This has been going on for a long time, and we’re only seeing the public side of the conflict.

Siblings are doubting this, but you can think of it like price gouging. It's the right behavior for extracting maximum value, but it burns a lot of trust, and that's important for a long-term business arrangement. It's playing the short game when they should be playing the long game.
