*'''It’s competitive''': For the same reason, it incentives efficient and effective design: one can drop down to a more basic layer and instead implement an alternative, competing layer. | *'''It’s competitive''': For the same reason, it incentives efficient and effective design: one can drop down to a more basic layer and instead implement an alternative, competing layer. | ||

This applies in the design of all other kinds of multi-use systems, such as — for rather good example — a digital execution hub. There are a number of things you should not do when designing a network if you want to maximise its chances of success: | This applies in the design of all other kinds of multi-use systems, such as — for rather good example — a digital execution hub.
