The takeaway should be that Symbiont has a lot more resources than Counterparty has alone, so we'll be working on products that are orthogonal to Counterparty *as well*. (We'll also have more resources than ever dedicated to Counterparty itself.)
Are you speaking from the perspective of Counterparty or Symbiont? If the former, you're saying that the Counterparty dev group will be working (in part) on products orthogonal to Counterparty? If the latter, is Symbiont currently working on any product that incorporates Counterparty?
When I wrote 'we', I meant 'Symbiont'; Symbiont is doing a lot with Counterparty.
