Yup, this is a very common effect that is used by almost every technology in existence. Almost anything is replicable, and engineers love to point that out, and how little time it would take them to replicate as a humblebrag hidden as a comment on triviality of the product. In reality, though, convenience and user experience is what makes the world work, not how easy something is on paper, because that last 20% that makes anything valuable can sure as hell be paid for only in the currency of blood, sweat and tears. (And time.)
Industrial revolution was a thing because it made easier the manufacturing of clothing. People could do it by hand before, the end product wasn’t something a human hand couldn’t. It just made it slightly simpler, and here we are 200 years later, counting atoms on microprocessor semiconductor walls.
