I see you never begged at the feet of Silicon Graphics....
Sun on a throne? Sun were amateurs compared to SGI in making your customer kneel.
No sub $11,000 electric car that has 100 mile range.

Not materially different from your immune system killing off the weaker individuals. A few stronger individuals may survive, and then what has your immune system done? Selected for a stronger pathogen.

Vaccine simply cuts out the stage where lots and lots of hosts get sick or die.
