Being mutually beneficial doesn't mean it still isn't based on advantages. I have an advantage because I can grow Bananas for less resources than you, you have an advantage because you can make widgets for less resources than me. Mutually beneficial but still based on one's advantage over another.
I didn't mean taking advantage in a negative way, though the line where negative is is what I was wondering about.
