Straight-up wrong. Intellectual labor mines things from the ether, an infinite expanse of value that has not existed yet.
With specific relevance to products, many of the defining products create their own markets. My iPhone didn't replace anything.
Uber similarly doesn't quite compete with taxis. It doesn't even stop at competing with cars. it *creates trips* by existing.
My vacation/biz trip/etc planning is changed by the existence of Uber/Lyft; they effectively make all points in a city collapse.
Didn't your iPhone replace your non-smartphone?
My behavior with an iPhone, and my bill for it, are utterly unlike that associated with a similar-if-one-squints device earlier.
