Fair but usage growing exponentially would mean the value it's providing grew exponentially, so I wouldn't say that's a bad thing with any certainty.

How efficiently can we manage that growth to ensure the benefits outweigh the costs?

If the benefits don't outweigh the costs won't they go out of business and there won't be any benefits or costs?
