>>This guy, Duwight, walks into a McDonald's and says: give me a Big (i)Mac hamburger without the seven secret
herbs and spices.

The clerk says, sorry sir, the way we make our money we don't vary our orders, we just serve the most popular
taste on a sort of assembly line basis.

This guy says, Let me speak to your manager, I want to know about your secret tying agreement with Amalgamated
Lettuce.<<

That analogy is rubbish. A more correct analogy is that
MS-Burger Inc supplies all the burger sellers (McDonalds, Burger King, etc) with sauce because it has an
effective monopoly. If Burger King decides to sell ONE
burger without MS-Sauce, then it suffers severe financial
penalties.
