After a good read and then screening through comments on Hacker News I got smarter in two ways:
- The bigger picture of argument reasoning might always be wrong considering a layer of axioms that we are not taking into consideration. Regardless of the example given from the financial industry - there are plenty allegories to this in other industries and life
- Lots of people can interpret an article in different ways, tonnes of comments on Ebitda and Cashflow, debt servicing, other nitty gritty details but look at the big picture and how ti shifts the mind on logic and finding your blind spots in terms of reasoning or opinions for that matter.
Anyways, kudos on the article, great job as usual
