It takes its name "race to the bottom" in that the original form was how competing business race to out-compete each other in the lowest price possible. The "self-defeating" bit comes from when the prices are too low to make a profit at all. I wonder what would happen if Japan declared these "fits of idiocy" by fandom unacceptable and made them forms of "public disturbances," then forbade any lining up until the "fan event" was officially open.
