I I would say I need to like coin this phrase. I don't, I don't know what this framework is, but there's something that I have observed where we have launched so many features that are totally unique to us that other platforms that we compete with just don't have. But if we launch this feature and let's say it's four out of 10, like maybe there's some bugs, it's like not as smooth. people ding us and be like, oh, I don't like this platform because this one obscure feature isn't that good, although it's not offered by any other platform. I don't know how to like better phrase that, but like no, I I got this.

Do you know DJ Khaled? Of course, yeah, of course. Okay, so he has that album like suffering from success when he like does the thing. That's what you're doing.
