Every premium product worth its price tag starts the same way: someone noticed a gap that mass-market goods couldn't close, then refused to cut corners closing it. Rolex didn't invent the watch. Aesop didn't invent skincare. Ted's Montana Grill didn't invent the steak. Each simply solved a problem no one else was solving well, sourced better inputs to do it, and wrapped the result in a presentation confident enough not to shout.
