> What are the practical, non-entertainment benefits of magnet balls? If there aren't any -- if they're a toy, a novelty -- it seems completely fair to hold them to a higher standard. By the same token, we could argue that movies should be banned because the images can trigger PTSD and epileptic seizures, and movies have no practical, non-entertainment benefits. It's one thing to say that a product should be re-designed to provide the same utility in a safer manner if that's an option. But it is not the government's place to make wholesale subjective decisions about utility to begin with. That is, it's one thing to require that Ford fix the design flaw in the Pinto that made it conducive to explosions because no one really wants an exploding car. It's another to ban cars altogether because public transit provides a safer alternative to personal automobiles.
