Or maybe they broke capitalism in the sense that they are showing that the shit they teach MBAs isn't the only or even the best path to profit and if enough people adopt (or return to) that way of doing business, they can dominate their markets and compete directly with the venture capital class that tries to compete with its financial weight more than whatever products or services it is currently peddling.

I mean, this part is so obvious to me right now. With all the complete shit products out there that have so many anti-features that I often just stop looking for things rather than get enticed by the good features, I think that competitors that come in with the intent of making good quality shit people want (where "good" can even just mean "doesn't try to spy on you") could similarly dominate their markets. And if people don't chase empires to become billionaires, I think there's a lot of room in all markets even when certain players come to dominate their local area (considering physical markets more than digital ones, since they scale very differently, though I do think that some thought could be put in to how to do this for digital markets, too... Maybe some drastic changes to IP laws).
