Thanks Patrick :)
The second part just meant if one firm defects first for like say a sum of 900 in a one shot game, then trust is broken and the two firms end up competing indefinitely for like say a figure of 400 in a Nash equilibrium and then you apply say a present day value (due to inflation and time value on money)of that sum which means you have to discount between 0 and 1, so maybe it is like .8. So if your cooperation figure is higher say 500, well if you discount 500 x .8 =400 vs 400 x .8=320 and then you times that by the number of repeated interactions you think there will be. In the long-term, you’ll find that cooperation wins. It’s basically this scene in the godfather:

FYI, jb55 (npub1xts…kk5s) is auto maths a thing now. I put a calculation in and Damus auto corrected or my phone did, not sure. That’s a first for me and it is so much better than word correction, at least numbers don’t lie and usually only one answer.
