How can you argue against the reality that it's better to use a car or delivery for 20 kg, than to carry it when walking. And since it's already delivered by a truck, why walk the last bit it's pointless. It's just a middle class virtue signalling
competition oh look who can be the most neo-amish and eschew modern conveniences.
I churn my own butter, because that's better for the environment! Everyone should make their own butter, it only takes 4 hours, that's "nothing" Ban butter factories!

If you're really going to have trouble carrying 20 kg on your back for a couple of city blocks, you can use a folding rolling cart instead to do the same at the same speed and with negligible effort. > And since it's already delivered by a truck, why walk the last bit it's pointless. One truck carrying twenty tons of groceries is not the same as one car carrying a few cases of bottled water.

Being able to deadlift it doesn’t make schlepping it all the way home a good plan.
