Rich person after making a thing: This thing is super dangerous and nobody else should be allowed to make it. However, I can be trusted to use it, but nobody else should ever be allowed to make this dangerous thing.
That's like basically the defense industry for any startup, you need to have inertia from the getgo, start producing your prototype that probably shouldn't be legal in your hands and quickly make connections and then score contracts. Or I guess you can just be the son, son in law or friend of the president these days.
