It wasn't really either - I just felt like puncturing James' argument from anti-authority. "It looks like it's run by marketdroids" is an abbreviation of an effect that anybody who's worked on or near a large corporate project should recognise (although you don't need to have done it to know it). I didn't really want to go over the subject again in any detail; handwaving in the general direction was sufficient to defeat the point I was replying to. -- Andrew Suffield
