Because again, you can't stop someone else from having great execution.

So it's not really a moat.

On the other hand, if you have great execution and most don't in your field,

That's a reason to win.

And there are certain fields where that's not the case because everyone's really good, like AI.

In hard tech AI, everyone's pretty good.

So it's not true that, I don't know, like, Cloud can simply out-execute open AI.

That's just not, you know, that's not how you would think about it.

But there are other fields, and hosting was one, and maybe grocery stores is one, where like, yeah, you don't want to say nobody, but almost nobody has any kind of innovation or will to do that or ability to do that or the culture to do that or whatever you want to say.

And so if you execute really well –

I mean, there just isn't other people doing that.

And so that was one of the things.

So when you have, oh, I'm a first-time entrepreneur.

I want to stay small.

I don't really know what's going on.

And then this is my fourth company, and I'm going really fast, and I'm hiring really good people.

And then when we raised money, which wasn't for two years,

because originally the idea was to bootstrap it again.

It was the fourth bootstrap company.

But even then, we only raised a million dollars.
