Microsoft, Apple, Tesla… every company is a bounty model. Only that your customers normally don’t tell you exactly what they want and how much they’ll pay.

Ok. I don’t have time to debate the definition of a bounty model. Good day.
No, you don’t have time to think about the fact that a bounty model is a nicer offer than pure entrepreneurship, while you’d like to have a fat paycheck guaranteed, because Marx theory of value is such a convenient excuse.
True, there's always a bounty out there for new products, to the extent they meet needs in the market. Do I understand you correctly that your analogy is most pure when employees get paid only profitshare and/or coequity owners?
