Duplicated effort means dignified jobs for the middle class to provide for their families. If you globalize everything and have a super efficient atomized machine then there's a lot of people who've been 'liberated' from their jobs who then get crappy jobs with no benefits like driving ubers sporadically. We don't have a world government that has a social contract to provide for all. Rather we have nations that sometimes provide for their citizens. And then theirs multinationals which sort of float above it causing mayhem for the plebs. But to the original point, if you want cheap EV's you could build them smaller with less features and not try out out compete a F150.
