Why do regulatory authorities prohibit cross-subsidisation between merged dominant and subsidiary entities?
💡 Explanation:Regulatory bodies prohibit cross-subsidisation, particularly in cases involving a dominant market player, to prevent the entity from using profits from a less competitive/upstream market to fund unreasonably low (predatory) prices in a competitive/downstream market. This practice is a form of market abuse that forecloses competition, so prohibiting it ensures a level playing field and fair competition.

What fundamental capability distinguishes a quantum bit (qubit) from a classical bit?
💡 Explanation:A classical bit can only be in one state (0 or 1) at any given time. A quantum bit, or qubit, can leverage the quantum mechanical principle of superposition to exist as a weighted combination of 0 and 1 simultaneously until it is measured. This capability allows quantum computers to perform computations on multiple states concurrently, leading to potential exponential speedups for certain problems.
