...Independent Choice?
I discover and buy a product independently of my peers. Its
superiority to other options and what I m already using is
immediately clear.
...Copying others?
I discover and buy a product through my peers.The product
may not be clearly superior. Its social value may be greater.

. . . In that Empire, the Art of Cartography attained such Perfection
that the map of a single Province occupied the entirety of a City, and
the map of the Empire, the entirety of a Province.
In time, those Unconscionable Maps no longer satisfied, and the
Cartographers Guilds struck a Map of the Empire whose size was that
of the Empire, and which coincided point for point with it.
The following Generations, who were not so fond of the Study of
Cartography as their Forebears had been, saw that that vast Map was
Useless, and not without some Pitilessness was it, that they delivered it
up to the Inclemencies of Sun and Winters. In the Deserts of the West,
still today, there are Tattered Ruins of that Map, inhabited by Animals
and Beggars; in all the Land there is no other Relic of the Disciplines of
Geography
