An inverted pyramid would make much more sense in terms of shape language. Put 'buy' at the lowest and narrowest point, like it's the lowest/worst option you have that fewest people need to resort to.

The original intended the base to be correlated with volume of food eaten. The buyerarchy version stays true to the original with the intention that someone use the first step the most.

I'd be interested to see your idea though

Here's a mockup, including driving_crooner's fix.

I also feel like make is in the wrong spot. Should probably be before swap.

I'm guessing the thinking is 'make' uses materials that require purchasing. Perhaps it should be subdivided into 'make from scraps' and 'make from new materials'.
