The EOS development cycle is incredibly long by industry standards. Although this might be a safety net on the founders’ part, ensuring that they can keep to their promises, this also leaves competitors with ample time to develop their own alternative solutions. If Ethereum manages to resolve its scalability problems in time, for example, it is unlikely that projects and developers used to the Ethereum ecosystem will rush off to join an unknown and untested development environment.

From concept to testnet in 5 months?
"this also leaves competitors with ample time to develop their own alternative solutions." Competition is good.
"If Ethereum manages to resolve its scalability problems in time, for example, it is unlikely that projects and developers used to the Ethereum ecosystem will rush off to join an unknown and untested development environment." It's not unknown and it's being tested as we speak, rigorously
