The price structure for the NYW&B was below the NH. Every dollar brought in by the NYW&B would have meant more than a dollar removed from the NH. That was their management view.

History is littered with the remains of companies that tried to suppress new technologies because it would disrupt a sure, steady income stream.

Kodak invented digital photography. It did not pursue it because it would cut into their film business.

GE invented the compact fluorescent. It declined to produce them because it would cut into incandescent bulb sales.
