Product lines with market sales are downstream of markets. The degree of per-product profit matters.

If you want to add “politics” to your causal map, that’s fine too. Reality is multi-factor. I do not deny that leaders make (to varying degrees) political and-or command-and-control decisions. This was already baked into the conversational context. Please take the conversational history into account.
