And if they are valuable contributors they will find new opportunities.
Again, paying people based on past contributions is not healthy for anyone. Take sports teams for illustration.

I like it because it's like communal but with a limit, so not herd mentally.
To add, I think ebikes will be much more commonplace commuting wise. They're already fairly affordable.
Absolutely agree. I haven't used it myself but hearing it describes makes me think theyve made a categorical defining product, much like the iPhone was to smartphones.
