If the goal is to eliminate a competitor, the damage can also occur in
other markets.
And with regard to vaporware, killing off the market altogether is
also damaging. IIRC, there have been occasions where vaporware killed
a product and the market segment ended up empty altogether. I'd
consider that still eligible for this sort of suit, since I find it
sufficiently similar in spirit.
Of course, the precise interpretation lies with the judges, and the
precise intent with the lawmakers.
With regard to Wallace's suit attempts, it is pretty much the same, as
he fails thoroughly without needing to look at such details.
