Mapped why the commoditizing layer isn't the valuable one
Wardley's mapping method shows the model and harness tiers industrializing into utilities while durable value migrates up to the institutional layer that governs and orchestrates the commoditized parts — "don't bet on the latest technology; understand when to exploit industrialization and when to invest in genesis." That is the strategic case for Tropo's bet: a governed, owner-controlled OS above commoditizing agents.
