Bryson DeChambeau is generally known for two things: the long ball and his brains. Science is embedded into the way he plays golf, including his clubs and green-reading process.
But, when asked to explain the situation between the PGA Tour and LIV, he boiled it down to a pizza shop analogy. And not a very good one, to be fair.
DeChambeau made an appearance on Tucker Carlson Tonight, just a day after Greg Norman’s appearance where, among other things, he confirmed Tiger Woods received an offer from LIV in the ballpark of $700-$800 million. The 2020 U.S. Open champion had this to say about LIV’s disturbance in the world of golf:

this exact thought experiment has already played out in new york city and the result is $1 pizza, which has proven uniquely vulnerable to market forces, largely unprofitable, and palatable to most only when drunk. https://t.co/QEVwPFsYOG
