This rule only applies to SMEs and normal businesses. Nowadays, the biggest organisations are diversifying their products and services even if it's not their area of expertise to increase their market share.

I worked for Arcus Brothers in the 1990s. They are 3rd generation business people in this college town. Their business has evolved over 3 generations. and has adapted with the cultural and economic changes in America, and regardless of popular opinion - locally and on the internet - they have prospered. They are something more than just a retail / pawn shop. They are a local phenomenon, a curiosity shop, and occasionally a dog-and-pony show. They are their own brand of sophistication and success, and regularly outsmart college educated intellectuals, while occasionally charming them at the same time.

You must be correct, 48 years in business so far is a perfect example of not doing business according to your maxims.
