They have made them safer—by reducing the complexity of the machines and the frequency of necessary human intervention by adding strings to pull the pins back into place.
- maxerickson 3y agoYeah, that's not what is meant above by "machines", they mean machines that have equivalent function, not machines that result in a different game. Looking at accident reports, it sounds like there are some easy changes, adding guards to the machines and changing industry practices to de-energize the machines during the maintenance activity: https://www.atlantictraining.com/blog/bowling-alley-worker-strangled-in-pinsetter-osha-issues-fines/ https://www.atlantictraining.com/blog/bowling-alley-worker-s...
- JohnFen 3y agoThey could make them safer without making the game worse, though.
- seanhunter 3y agoYou are presenting the classic logical fallacy of We must do something This is a thing Therefore we must do this. There are other ways they could make the machine safer that don't involve adding strings and thereby changing the game.
