While there's nothing wrong with companies which don't have a strong technical moat, it's not where our expertise lies. So if the business is purely network effect and user-based growth without technical barriers, we don't focus on those companies. We also do not do pharma or therapeutic biotech because we don't have expertise in those areas.
