#2Where's the "objective" part here? It's not impossible to do -- start with a straightforward definition of "good" (we need an axiom) and then show the data that these things have drifted away from that direction.

#3The first example is because the game had a patch, I'm pretty sure that you can skip that on Switch, but even if you can't, games that couldn't be patched were objectively worse than ones that can.
The second example is social media and has been discussed to death. No arguments there.
The third example, Tesla's UI, could be said to be worse than manual buttons, but the technology in a Tesla is not objectively worse overall than old cars. Electric cars are amazing tech.

Safety-wise, nothing has scored higher than new EVs like the Tesla, so there is some progress.
Infotainment-wise, that’s a different story…

So just how does one escape from a car through the window if the electrical mechanism is broken?
