You are correct. IMO Moore's is really an observation about the behavior of people producing technology under a system that rewards incremental improvement.

- eru 16y agoMoore's law says that transistor count increases exponentially, and it gives the rate of increase. You may find the exponential increase in other "system[s] that rewards incremental improvement." But the rate of increase is specific. Also, say, fuel economy in cars did not grow exponentially, also one might argue that it is part of a similar system. (Or did (and does) it increase exponentially? Anyone having any data?)
