We go backwards as a society all the time. Central vacccums are objectively superior to the kind that most people use in their house today, but they were a "fad" of the 70s and 80s.
Americans are not putting bidet toilet seats into their homes despite how cheap and easy it is.
Just because something is better doesn't mean we will start using it.
- JoeAltmaier 3y agoOk that's a step too far! Central vacuums are definitely the inferior choice. The half-mile of hose you have to drag around, keep unplugging and replugging to different pneumatic outlets, and store is prohibitively troublesome. Folks I know who had such a system in the house they bought, immediately went out and bought a 'regular' vacuum.
