A really fundamental dichotomy in software is whether the product is user-centric or organization-centric. For example, Microsoft accounts are organization-centric. Users end up with many accounts, all of which are siloed. Compare Discord (one account, many servers) to Slack (many accounts, one per server).
This is a mission-critical distinction. Only the most enterprise of enterprise products should ever consider being org-first. Users will feel that second-class status *acutely*.
