Whoa whoa. The "association" OP speaks of is down to effective marketing - creating a common image of German product/industrial design as meticulous and high performing - not some objective engineering ranking.
- nemo44x 3y agoGood point. Germans are good at marketing I guess. But very poor engineers.
- nikau 3y agoIt's not the engineers, it's the consumer demand for things other than depreciation and longevity.
- nemo44x 3y agoOther places make performant things that have far more longevity. Japan for instance. It’s a cultural thing in Germany. I’ve spent a good deal of time there and was surprised how good at marketing they are and how bad at building. German exports of many things are of very low quality but high prices.
