On the subject itself - why not have both? Why does it have to be "either or" case? Are they excluding each other completely? Not really. Sure, in some specific cases you can't have both simultaneously, but that's alright, and then just have two separately, each in own time and place.
I think some people are simply mistaken and/or naive to think that any RP merits a reward, that any effort has to have guaranteed outcome. Some things work out in the end, the others don't. Sometimes it can be surprising: the ones expected to fail actually succeed, and some of those with higher degree of ambition collapse and crumble.
