Yes, and my point is that this is an expensive process that is not accessible to many 30 person companies because it's close to hiring another person, for the benefit of maybe 1-2 tool choices in a year's time.

You can get some AI services and fire some people straight away. Increasing the work from 30 to 50 needs more sales which may or may not happen one day.

Investor pitches are the other way round - all we are going to grow 50x, no we're going to have layoffs.
