Verkada: Why Would Any Integrator Partake In Their Own Elimination?

It amazes me that integrators still partner with Verkada. I have the same reaction to Uber drivers choosing to drive for Uber. They have made it clear they intend to eliminate your ability to build a business beyond pulling wire, just like Iber has made it clear they intend to eliminate drivers by using what they make off of drivers to build autonomous taxis. Why would anyone partake in their own elimination?
