Author is right, but chosen wrong example.

Religion is not a tool, unlike programming language, limited by definition, Religion is Universe, with endless number of variants. Some religions, like protestants, are by definition distributed, they just have not some acknowledged position on many questions.

But if we talk about business, this is exact hit, in business, to convince client, you should have narrow offer, which fit this client believes, nothing more.

Why so, if you widen offer, because of steel triangle of PM, you have to raise costs, and/or lower quality.

And yes, I know about smartphones, but my estimation, at least, 10-25% of HN discussions, are about low quality of widened solutions, including smartphones, or about excellence of narrow solutions, like C64, or ST.
