Why do you believe that this is the wrong question? Are you pointing to the fact that RockMelt, Flock, etc. are products for which there is no real market? If so, then I agree with you.
That is what I mean. All products answer a question. Unsuccessful ones answer the wrong question. The question may make intellectual sense, it may be tempting - it's just wrong. So you end up with a product without a market. :)
