Classic case of yes men-ism. Everyone around zuck tells him he's the greatest, smartest, infallible. He likely removed anyone from his life that was willing to tell him he was wrong. He is making money hand over fist, and believes it, he's special, the laser light of all knowledge shines out of his ass, don't look directly at it or you can go blind. So he gets an idea, tells his people how he thinks everyone could get into it, they all heartily agree, what a great idea zuck!
I bet if anyone did tell him it wasn't, he fired or removed them from his life, and still hasn't apologized or made amends about it too, and instead doesn't hold any sort of grudge against the people that told him he was right despite knowing better and being too craven to tell the truth.
