So interesting.
This is incredible!
Interesting stuff! The video at the end is a great watch: "For any mass manufactured object the winner is usually the one that is just good enough". So we may well end up with the minimum acceptable quality rather than the better tech.
Bureaucracies / Governements are inefficient, but there is also a social need for them to cater for inefficient markets, providing services that would make no sense for private companies in a free market. Maximising profits for a private company is a much simpler goal than the cost / benefit considerations required of Government. The former is largely mathematical in nature, the latter often ethical.
I'm inspired!
Great job explaining.
