You seem to be getting close to saying that the product actually being sold hardly matters, which I find hyperbolic.

This is the kind of thing that used to be said about Microsoft, that they were good at selling in spite of having bad products. But the truth was that Microsoft knew very well what their customers needed and wanted, and for the most part did a better job building something that met those wants and needs than their competitors.
