It isn’t, it is how some people approach business. Not all.

Again, in my opinion this is just cynical and constantly - almost psychopathically - propagated here as though it’s some kind of virtue of business or the only way a business can be ‘pure’ and succeed.

It just isn’t.

And, if you want to sell B2B, you have to sort out your compliance, or you’re gonna sell nothing. So, for a very large number of businesses, this levelling up is non-negotiable if you want to succeed.
