It allows for outfits to succeed insofar as they make the the right choices, even if the logic behind those choices is spotty or if it's based on executives literally trying to intuit the best course of action. Conversely, outfits can fall if they make the wrong choices, and those choices being based on the most dutiful application of the most sophisticated "theory" will not have you. They literally called it a "correction" when big line goes down, because it means that the outfit (or the entire economy) is shitting itself and things are going awry for whatever reason.
But the thing is, commies and true corpos hate this kind of thinking, because baked into it is the understanding that they could always be wrong, and that their degrees or their virtue signals will not save them. Commies do it by nationalizing everything, and corpos just make sure the money printer as the Federal Reserve keeps injecting more cash into their business checking. Both feel entitled to pick winners and losers, and of course they're winners.
