I won't say it's easy at a smaller scale, but it is simpler.
In theory, yeah.
There's the target in front of you.
You hit it or you don't.
It's very scary and very hard, but that is the target.
And as you scale, there's more targets that have to be hit.
Absolutely.
I think, too, in a high-growth market like data centers and mission critical, those early wins, I think people mistake them a little bit.

and the scale of hyperscale demand these days i mean not to hand wave a 40 or 50 or 80 megawatt data center but could be a side project for what they're doing or they just needed it in a pinch that's a lot of revenue for you which is amazing yeah but that's not a that's not a business model that's going to scale to a gigawatt or two gigawatts or five gigawatts which is somehow the standard and this isn't us being like glass half empty or anything like that it's just like

It's going to make it way worse.
Yeah.
