For security reasons, I'd imagine that the IP wouldn't really be fungible, and for practical reasons, if the same people using the same tech are producing two different products then I can see how there would be real diseconomies that would result from an operational spinoff.
However, if we were to simply create a separate listed vehicle that has an entitlement to the cash flows from ZSS and an obligation to cover a reasonable percentage of the shared operational costs, then I think that we could create a situation where we could have our cake and eat it too.
We could appoint someone with an investor relations and marketing background to head up the spun off entity, and with no technical or operational responsibilities, he could focus 100% on selling the sizzle, while MG and the other nerds focus on the steak.
