Not preventing outright does not mean there isn’t downward pressure via already existing larger Capitalists. Competition + price of Capital provides a significant barrier to entry for Worker co-operatives.
Worker co-operatives do make a significant amount of progress! Hell, FOSS itself is fairly leftist in organization, and we both seem to think at minimum it’s worth exploring. The fact that there are larger Capitalist entities does not make them better or more efficient, just larger.
You’re posing a hypothesis without doing any actual analysis, and hoping to skirt by on vibes. Tell me, why do you think it’s better for individuals to own tools, than workers? Do you think Democracy is fundamentally a worse concept than dictatorship?
