That’s probably true in the aggregate (as I’d posit most advances are incremental and become more expensive as you run up against diminishing returns to investment with legacy technologies). However, I think it discounts breakthrough tech/new technology fields and new applications. Not to mention many things that are consumer focused ( beanie babies, spanks, super soakers etc)
