When you do that, things become pretty simple. You don’t have all of these distractions. You don’t have all of these things that companies generally worry about.

You don’t have silos built up where everybody is trying to optimize their silo and figuring out how to grab turf and all of these things. It makes all of our jobs easier so we’re freed up to focus on the things that truly matter.
