Having seen underneath the surface of a certain FMCG (Fast Moving Consumer Goods) giant of USA/multinational market...
The two biggest differences they have with GosPlan is that they have way lower cardinality (less products/categories), and computing/communication power to iterate very fast.
Add to it market data (out of Walmart and others streaming all your purchases with minimal redaction and categorized by store/zip-code) plus in some cases direct inventory view into stores, and simply an army of people and robots/ai that do daily tuning of the supply chain, and you have GosPlan's wet dream of central planning.
