Good summary, ive also admired CRWD speed at installation. The idea of being able to populate CRWD across an org in 1 week or less, which i believe they have mentioned re: Target on earnings calls is very powerful. Being able to show ease of installation, and concrete progress in a short time in a beta/test seems very powerful for them.

RE: CI/CD this is one place where it seems JFrog shines, and a good example. They have spend very little on S&M and direct sales, similar to the way Atlassian started.

Love how you explained the correlation between the target user and the "weight" of the product. Similar to Synk, I think Postman has done a great job too by keeping their product light and targetting developers only.

For sure! Point being though its not just Postman or Twilio but also Salesforce and ServiceNow that are done a great job by keeping having their product have weight and targeting the right personas! Product needs to match go to market!
