I don't think we're all going to be buying disposable kettles every day. Think about the infrastructure that had to exist to replace that kettle before. We had to build a network of brick and mortar stores all over the place and keep them supplied with kettles and all kinds of other things in case someone needed them. When a replacement was needed, the person who needed it had to drive there alone and get it.
Now we have a warehouse (which the brick and mortar stores had anyway) and instead of millions of individuals making trips alone, we have delivery van that is driving around anyway bringing things to whoever needs them that day. Overall, I think we've gained a lot of efficiency and reduced the amount of resources necessary to get goods to people who need them.
