And they didn't have to choose Porsche in the first place.

Another example I often like to use are the low number Ferrari 360 and later 430 teams coming to face the ludicrous Porsche 911 armada at the beginning of the century in GT/NGT/GT2. They were at horrendous disadvantage in terms of numbers and it seemed almost desperate but through time, clever engineering and ultimately taking couple of wins, the numbers in GT2 started to rotate 50-50 between Ferrari and Porsche. Meanwhile the likes of Spyker still continued at the back of the back, even though they did not have realistic chance to win with the package they had built. It's living proof that just because you do not have guaranteed success, you can and should still compete. That is what sport is all about.

Cream always rises to the top, it's clear. But cream rising to the top when there's only 3 other available pre-packaged ingredients, or in fact nothing else at all, that's nothing special. It's like comparing late afternoon emptying Chinese buffet to a la carte menu at Michelin restaurant.
