No.... what I'm saying is if we take this to the absolut most elementary level.... I have a pair of shoes that I want to sell. I can pay you a percentage to find someone to buy them from me. That's ME relying on traffic to buy my content. Or.... I can go out and sell the shit myself... meaning... YOU, and your Traffic has just been eliminated from the equation, yet I still have found a way to make money from my content.

Reversed, You know people. You are able to send them anywhere you choose, to buy stuff. But there is nowhere to send them. That's having NO Content. You can't do what I just did, and go out and find someting to sell them, because there's NO Content. Your line ends there. No Content = No Purchase. Why? There is nothing to purchase.

No traffic does not = No Purchase, because I can CREATE (key word there) Traffic all on my own if I have the product. The possessor of the content can be self sufficient, where the controller of the traffic cannot.

Is it that difficult to comprehend?
