I like your point, however, I also think that when we're discussing these options, we're likely focusing on spreading yourself in a domain where you have interest.

Let's take the example of a friend of mine who is a stone mason. He started out doing all kinds of different stone works. From driveways, stone walls, fireplaces, etc etc.

Any job that needed doing, he could do.

But then he did a bathroom which ended up in a bunch of architecture magazines, and that led to another bathroom, which led to a spa.

He now only does high-end bathrooms and spas. That's what the market told him they valued.

He still works in stone, just like Trent works in music. Still loves the craft. If the market had said "we love the walls you make", he probably would have focused on that.
