"Transitioning from the instrument player to the conductor of the orchestra"
I don't think this analogy is good, especially for an indie developer. A 40-piece orchestra needs a conductor, but a 4-piece rock band does not. In any case, the musicians are always the talent, a conductor merely a coordinator. Moreover, in classical music, the conductor is not even the composer.
@lapcatsoftware @macstories Love the analogy.
With AI, I still question whether the level of effort is worth it. How much extra are they actually doing and are they actually saving time, or does it just appear that way.

Interesting. I do get the draw. But even as a developer, I think one time purchase with upgrades is still a better customer experience. But you still supplement with subscription for cloud things.
