I didn’t downvote you, I think you offered a thoughtful critique of the question.
Even if parties have wildly different objectives or winning conditions, if they didn’t have to compete for the same resources then they could cooperate or at least ignore each other. That wouldn’t be true if it were a race to finish first, but in that case they’ve started competing for the resource of time.
Maybe some folks thought it was a cop out answer, since I was seeking new perspectives rather than a reason to not ask for them? But, I think your response can help guide responses to even more extreme examples than some potentially topical ones by taking you up on your challenge.

I think that ignoring each other is probably the most common thing happening. One can look at wild animals sharing the same living space without fighting (or not, depending if they’re prey/predator to one another). Competition and fight happen when there is something disputed between them, bet it one serving as food to the other or some common resources. At least, as far as I understand it. It’s not that different for us, human animals ;)
I didn’t downvote you,
I did not designated anyone in particular, I was just trying to encourage whoever downvoted to also express their motivation/reasoning. I’m more than willing to learn from my mistakes, but I can’t learn shit without at the very least some form of an argument beside ‘Nah, don’t like u/what u said’ (which is perfectly fine by me, just not very… interesting).

Thx, I did not know that expression and had to check its meaning. I can confirm it wasn’t a cop out, just the question that crossed my mind when I started reflecting on the OP question (a question I may have poorly understood, though, as English is not my first language).
