  You’re definitely right. Competence is critical—I will have to edit my article to include that. I don’t believe that is a fundamental flaw with the idea, but it is something I was probably not careful enough about when writing this out.

  I’ll need to think about how this effects the idea.

  I don’t know much about creating a wiki and came up with this after a short google search. I’ll look into Miraheze, was not too pleased with the ads on Fandom, tbh.

  Technically, there’s no difference in the long-term outcome, and if you had reason that creating a new company would be more likely to succeed, that would be a fine idea.

  I assume it would be easier to take over an existing company, because you’d gain access to their infrastructure, intellectual property, experienced employees, and existing customer base.
