That's exactly what I'm talking about. The end desire is money, not something else. Not users' comfort, for example. That B2B platform is present because everyone wants money.

Most tools (if not all) charge for services not merely for costs and R&D, but also for profit. Profit rules everything. Users' gained utility (or with the hip term "value") is provided just for money.

Yes, we need money to survive, but the aim is not to survive or earn a "living wage". The target is to earn money to be able to earn more monies. Trying to own all.

This is why enshittification is a thing.
