    Yeah I agree. That’s why I said it was their ostensive goal. Their actual goal has only ever been profit.

        Oh huh TIL. I also looked it up, and it seems like a real doozy of a word. I had no idea. Looks some some dictionaries say that the two words are interchangeable, whereas others distinguish between them, and in the latter case, I used the wrong one. Language is fun!
