True. I made the mistake of thinking that everyone is a critical shopper and always aware of the prices/sizes of things. There probably are enough people just buying stuff they need without further analyzation.
Yet they also do fit in my point. The quitters aren't the bigger group and hence quitting was futile (in the sense of exercising your vote by an active choice of purchase versus boycott).
