There's a strong drive for everyone to do things the same way in IT. Some of the same pressure that drives us towards open standards can also drive us towards using a standard vendor.

> I agree with you in principle, but the only solution I can think of would be to split up a company with reach like CrowdStrike's.

Changing corporate structures doesn't necessarily help. It's possible that if CrowdStrike were split up into to smaller companies, all the customers would go to the one with the "better" product and we'd be in a similar position.
