which companies are the "existing gorillas"? Knowing that is crucial to action, no?

Well, yes and no. :) It would seem to be so if one regarded the Gorilla Game as some kind of magical formula for success in investing (hard to imagine anyone would think that after the last year) and one believed a given company either was or was not a gorilla in a pure sense. But, clearly gorillaness is a property which a company may have more or less of, which can apply to parts of a company's business and not others, and which is not always clear except in retrospect. That being the case, I would say that it was the understanding of the company derived from investigating it in the light of Gorilla Game criteria which was crucial to action, not some list of known and vetted companies.
