I’ll start it off:

  • Windows is a perfectly fine OS, as long as you use Enterprise or Server (Home and Pro are crap)
  • Self driving cars are the future since the US won’t fully embrace mass transit

    This is just a question of semantics. If valve wanted to commit to anticompetitive practices they easily could (e.g. make it so that games published on steam can’t be published on other desktop storefronts as well, I think most publishers would be forced to stick with Steam). The only difference between our arguments is that what you call a “monopoly” is a company that actually commits to and controls the market with such practices and what I call a “monopoly” is a company that has enough market power to do so. (And I think both are totally sensible definitions of the word “monopoly”)
