Sorry if my tone will be less gentle than needed.

Your comment brings no ounce of new ideas or criticisms to the table,

I don’t think so.

overlooks all the pros and cons already mentioned

It makes sense that others look at different parts of the problem than you do.

I run businesses for 15 years, do ethical business since 10 yrs and am thinking from a position of experience.

Most people have (or recently enough had and will have) a job, and most people know a person or two with 10-15 years of experience in management positions who think they are thinking from a position of experience.

Different professions and job responsibilities exist for a reason.

The reason I dont present myself in a way that screams competence is because this is lemmy and we dont need this stuff.

You did it here instead of continuing a pretty normal thread or leaving it be.

I like spitballing ideas and push new projects for the benefit of the people.

That is important, but almost everyone has been spitballing ideas and pushing new projects since they learned to speak.

But feel free to suggest constructive things.

Quoting myself:

Getting back to logistics - one has to design a system of shared warehouses, transportation, mailing and delivery tasks, tracking, reporting on outcomes of every event, and all that should be even more abuse-resilient than the processes inside actual Amazon. You’ll have Byzantine problems in every interaction.

“Shared” is the important part. Even without that one can fail logistics - see USSR, the biggest corporation to fail in history.
