There is probably some equilibrium number at some point, but might be a lot less than current population.

Search for companies using ebpf, like Cilium, Cloudflare, Sysdig, etc. Might not start on a team doing ebpf/c, but you could get exposure there (and depending on your level, maybe they will hire you on that team, who knows).
LVMH has purchased a lot of companies that have maintained success, but they are a holding company that runs companies more as independent subsidiaries. If software followed this model it might be alright, but most of the acquisitions by big companies are trying to merge the new company into the old, vs. buying, running and sustaining a company as a continuing business.
