How do you feel about defensibility in solar? There's no such thing. Even Apple don't have it. Apple very famously championed their patented iPhone technologies, and yet Samsung came and actually beat them on many different criteria. Technology is a cat and mouse game. It's about who builds it first and brings it to market, helps customers understand it and adopt it. At some point, you can build some degree of defensibility, but software companies and technology companies in particular, they don't tend to have any defensibility other than the fact that they can build better and faster than anyone else. And that's OK.
