Maybe a better framing is “business owners are comfortable and accustomed to having conflicts in professional environments”

An employee doesn’t show up for work a few days in a row, you have to fire them the next day. Every day they’re pushing against the grain.

A vendor isn’t behaving? A business owner isn’t scared of using conflict to resolve the situation.

Yeah, the phrase “the buck stops here” is literally true with a business owner. Employees have the privilege to fantasize—the owner uniquely does not.
