A cornered resource's benefit takes the asset's form: Pixar's Brain Trust, a drug patent, nearby limestone, a process patent

The claim

The benefit of a Cornered Resource takes whatever form the asset gives: Pixar's Brain Trust produced consistently superior films and outsized box office, while other cases are a blockbuster drug patent, a cement maker's nearby limestone, or Bausch & Lomb's spin-casting technology for soft lenses.
