That's really well said and an underrated comment here. In a sane world, Unity would "make a living" just fine. Another user commented on where they spent their margins, and my bet is that it's on bullshit. Executive compensation should be first to get slashed, and if anything they should concentrate on keeping the "golden goose" or core development team alive.
Yep they bought a good chunk of Weta Digital for some reason.
Allowing leaders to use profits however they wish has been a disaster. I don't know if it was codified into law, but when companies had to invest in R&D, and they had to invest in employees before drinking their own koolaid the world was a better place. Employees were taken care of, average people could thrive. Now its an open feeding trough everyone else is exempt from. The modern world only thrives with checks and balances, its proven that without them the powerful cannot be trusted.
