An important aspect of understanding your business ecosystem is knowing your position within it (positioning), whether you hold a higher or lower (subordinate) role, and whether your offerings are substitutes or complements. Netflix started as a DVD rental service. With the rise of online streaming, Netflix saw it as a replacement for DVD rentals. Kimbap and Ramen are complementary goods, but Ramen and Udon are substitutes. This is why, even when setting up a snack bar, paying attention to the menu is crucial. Complementary goods increase sales, while substitutes are more likely to lead to no change or even a decline in sales. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Certificates are often more valuable in proving "there is none" than in proving "there is one." For example, a birth certificate is more beneficial in proving the only person in the world by proving an unborn existence like him or her than in proving the person's existence. That is, proof of absence is more valuable than proof of existence. We don't know where value comes from. What is the real element of our existence and our occupation?
