seu still has a good point. That there are mechanisms (like companies making more money via cheaper production/handling when scaling, or catering to careless customers) that lead us to use artificial products doesn't always (or even often?) mean that it's the better solution for us as a whole, long term. Because the drawbacks of artificial solutions may show up in places that the producers or consumers don't feel.
