Interesting reflection, which I would have trouble holding as I
reflect back on the last 30 years that I have spent in IT.

Holding the first-mover induced network effect as a myth would require
denying the prima facie evidence of the economic realities of the IT
marketplace including the surrounding technology market in general.

I believe that the Open-Source movement is working to change this
economic reality.  Which will in and of itself have its own set of
interesting effects.
