While in its youth, significant upgrades were necessary to flesh out the product’s capabilities, as it entered maturity, it’s fair to say the development velocity tapered off. The Open Letter went global and over 200 firms eventually signed it. This was the straw that broke the camel’s backyet more licence models, yet more cost.
