> But the bone is cooked with the steak.

I've never heard that expression before! Of course googling it I get a million steak recipes. Can you explain what it means?



Basically that it isn't all "tender and delicious meat," i.e. the good stuff. You have to have the bone (a way to generate revenue) with the meat (the fun content for users) before you can cook and serve it (continue to support it).

Hope that helps!
