On a broader note, this is a failure of capitalism in which products can never be perfected.

There are sooo many technologies that we fully figured out years ago but they can’t just make it optimal and move on.

This is why we have washing machines using internet for whatever reason.

The flip side is the kind of stagnation where you get a soviet-era hunk of junk that's still in operation, but horribly inefficient.

I wouldn't really take the soviet union as example for the flip side tbh

I just meant, "60-year-old rust bucket held together by duct tape and prayers," but soviet-era was shorter.
