I always see this and it always rubs me the wrong way. You're presuming that the only form of innovation is an entirely new consumer product.

But keep in mind that Google regularly launches new products and features that are more profitable than many startups, and then shutters them, and regularly launches individual features or pieces of infra that are industry leading (or defining, as in the case of k8s). They just aren't new consumer products.

Where are these “profitable” new features?
