English term or phrase: cost causation
I en text av en professor i ekonomi förekommer denna term om "two-sided markets", som mobiltelefoninät påstås utgöras av. Här kommer lite kontext:

ii. No cost causation. There is no direct relationship between the price on one side and the incremental cost of serving that side. For many two–sided platform services, customers consume the service “jointly,” so that it is not meaningful to even talk about one side causing the cost of their consumption. For example, an eBay transaction only takes place when a buyer makes a purchase from a seller.
