Trying to hype up investors, yes! It's exactly why we keep seeing features that nobody wants in goods and services nowadays.
Capitalism is supposed to maximize efficiency and do everything it can to make the consumers happy. But we have reached a point where the "meta" isn't that anymore. It really never was, really. But with corporations becoming so big they dominate world markets, it has become complety shameless about it.
They are making the customers happy, the problem is people misunderstand their position in the supply chain.
