I think many assume it is some sort of zero-sum-game. This simply isn't how most unique successful product and service based niche businesses operate.
Most firms that directly try to hyper-scale their way into market dominance simply fail within a few years. The smarter bros often cash-out after the IPO these days.
Some people do feel entitled to others free time, and post-unknown-risk capital investments. Those folks can't help anyone succeed at anything except bankruptcy. =3
