> regardless of category I think that's a sweeping generalization. For example, it's much better to have a bunch of food that's mostly garbage than to have a famine where all food is super high quality. There were points in history where this choice was made (obviously unconsciously because the choice is too obvious to even think about). Other examples abound. Technology often makes things much cheaper while reducing quality. Sometimes that's bad, sometimes it's great.
