Amazon buys what's left of Shopify.
The chart works. The board agrees with it and replaces you anyway. Your successor signs in May.
The Chair: The vote is 9 to 0. Thank you. Next item.
The Buyer: Amazon is delighted. Your merchants will finally get Prime. And our fees.
The Buyer: We'll keep the green bag. On a sticker. Somewhere in a warehouse.
Outcome: Lost as a feature

One path that gets here
A · We'll sell agent-ready storefronts on PlusC · Then Shop becomes the shopper's agent. NowA · Put the Shop spending chart before the board
