Thinking about it more, I suppose I don’t know, perhaps they were perfectly happy.
However, in my experience, when you set out to find a thing and fail to find it that often leads to dissatisfaction.
My expectation / rule of thumb for this is “People don’t often hunt for things they don’t want for some reason”.
Oftentimes in human affairs the stated reason for a decision is not the true reason. Especially for speculative investments, there are usually multiple motivating reasons.
