Right. Too often people conflate (a) risk-loving entrepreneurs and their marketing claims with the (b) realities of usage patterns and associated value-add.

As an example, look at how cars are advertised. If you only paid attention to marketing, you would think everyone is zipping around winding mountain roads in their SUVs, loaded up with backcountry gear. This is not accurate, but nonetheless SUVs are dominant.
