Why make the computer do anything but maximize dopamine and dollars flying out of your wallet? Why ship a calculator app you can't sell subscriptions on, a command line interface, an email suite? Can't make money on it so why do it right? Why let a hammer be a hammer and not let you gamble crypto with it too?
If the customer wants these things and is paying for it, why shouldn't we? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
And if your idealism can pay your bills, good for you!
