And indeed, the author mentions exactly this:
> An engineer with no such customer awareness and instead an incessant obsession with optimizing everything that can be optimized, might try to optimize for speed… when it’s likely the consumer cares more about: cleanliness, energy rating and capacity.

They are already pretty good.

#7> Or they’re only better ideologically, and in that case, only valuable to those who share the same ideology. Which is fine if the market for that ideology is big ...

They care a lot more about it being entertaining and insightful.
He's perfectly described Mastodon. A magnificent solution in search of a problem aimed at catering to ants. Hence the dominoes of instances shutting down one after another.

They do which is why they have special industrial dishwashers. I worked in a restaurant many, many years (decades?) ago. There was a room dedicated to dishwashing. There was a manual pre-rinse area and the washer itself would blaze through a rack of dishes in minutes. A guy manned it full time during the busy hours.
This wouldn’t be practical in a home.
