> Digital goods are exclusively luxury goods
It depends on the digital good. In order to make essential necessities to anywhere near scale of our needs requires automation. So these digital goods are an essential precursor to our physical necessities. Maybe they don't need to be produced on the scale of physical goods but every essential industry such as food, water, medicine, and shelter depends on so-called digital goods.
