You don't necessarily start losing people. Every commercial medium is like this. Seeking commercial success comes with an avalanche of self-censorship and cargo cultism. You're casting the widest possible net and the product that you produce is only evaluated in terms of revenue. Unfortunately, certain kinds of really bad art sell very well.
