So, you are saying that COKE has a respected brand whereas PCLN's brand is losing respect. Let's add that COKE markets soda pop. Any other irrelevant facts you would like to add? You said that anybody can do what PCLN is doing, that's not true. You then fire back with the issue of brand respect as if that has something to do with your initial assertion, which it does not. Yes, we can say that anybody can do what COKE does in terms of offering a sugar-based soda; no, we can't say that anybody can put together a system like PCLN. As for the brand issue, I agree with you on that, and also that PCLN does not manufacture soda, and that PCLN doesn't have the same name as COKE, and sundry other unrelated differences.
