That might be why a feature exists, or maybe even why a particular paid library was chosen instead of another. That doesn't explain why the code is written the way it was, which is the point of documentation. Why the feature exists is the realm of the PRD, not the design doc.

Of course if those aren't securities, then the entire site is illegal as it's operating as a securities exchange.

Scalping isn't, and shouldn't be, illegal. You own the ticket, you should be able to do what you want with it, including reselling it.

And no, getting rid of scalpers wouldn't make ticket prices higher. Scalpers exist because the concert ticket prices are lower than what the market will actually bear. If a theater full of people are willing to pay 1K for a concert and they sell the ticket for 500, a scalper can make a profit via arbitrage. The only actual way to get rid of scalpers is to raise the prices to the sky (like 2-5x current prices) and slowly bring down prices over time until they're all sold. But my guess is you probably wouldn't like that any better, as the end price would likely be higher than the current scalpers price.

That just means our security was good. You little anecdote isn't actual data.

The government dictates how it's spent, it's government money. Only the dimmest of the dim would think government money does come from a tax pool.

"There is no legal duty of responsibility to your shareholders beyond a) not lying to them"
Read the entire sentence next time.

And it's an accurate Or to be more specific:
In a normal for-profit corporation, especially under Delaware-style corporate law, directors, and officers generally have fiduciary duties to the corporation and its shareholders. That means they are supposed to act loyally, carefully, and in good faith for the corporation’s benefit, which usually means long-term shareholder value..

"Maximize shareholder value" is a late 20th century myth about corporations.
It is simple not true, and in fact many CEO have backed away from it.
