  Some people have never tried getting a product to market before, and it shows.

  Yes, my point is that I’m tired of these bullshit headlines that are implying that we have some great breakthrough, unless their scientific discovery also accounts for everything you listed, it’s not a breakthrough and we the public don’t need to hear about it.

    Some of us like learning about science and technology, if you only want to know about products then watch adverts.

    The average person understands the difference between ‘will’ and ‘could’

    You seem to be conflating breakthrough with manufacturing capacity

      No, I’m just not referring to a niche scientific discovery that will probably lead nowhere as a “breakthrough”.

  I love shows like How It’s Made, you get to see the Rube Goldbergian systems that produce stuff we take for granted.
