$7000 is still pretty low as a bizness investment.  Lots of entrepreneurs could afford that.  You don't need a $Trillion$ IPO.

What the Diner has is good enough, and it only took $10,000 to get there. 

Can you outline "good enough"? Can I ask it to build python code to do specific tasks with proprietary information, including the stochastic modeling component? Scrape websites for all posts from a given user, put it in some organized fashion? Collate all research material on the web on a particular technical angle I need references for? Search the internet across my 5 favorite news sources and build me a summary? (Didn't Surly1 do something like that years ago? Collapse Chronicles? He still does it, and it is pretty good stuff).

He still does, and he is aware that he is a contributor and moderator here.  He also has never had time to read all the articles to generate a complete summary, nobody does.  That is where a clean honest Diner generated description adds something new to what Surly, and others, and myself have done previously.  And something which you cannot be trusted to do.

Didn't Surly1 do something like that years ago?

Indeed, and Collapse Chronicles is prominently linked on top of this page in a rotating banner.  As you know.
