The latter is the Innovator’s Dilemma.

Every bad decision my competitor made that I can identify ahead of time just narrows the gap.

This is why I favor execution excellence over cheap wins. If you can consistently introduce features quarter after quarter year after year, you can run down a competitor. And your sales guys can position the product with that story.

But it takes money and intestinal fortitude, and both are in short supply.
