It's true, Helge is quite formidable :) right now, you do need to have a TD to get much out of CP. my point was really to say that our goal is to have something that small studios can benefit from as well. We looked at doing something like ICE from the outset, but it limits the scope to do that from the start. Building a platform is a bit more methodical (over two years!), but we're hoping the results will speak for themselves.
I understand where you're coming from - all I can say is that we didn't start Fabric to flip it. There are many reasons why we started the company, but the main desire was to innovate - as you identified, having very few vendors is unhealthy for innovation.
