Well, if you're making "pots", you're not making "vases", "pans" or "thimbles". The experiment doesn't work if you don't set any acceptance criteria.

I see a kind of future where restaurants are reduced to a kitchen and packing area, with no seats. Then several kitchens bunched together to save on rent and utilities. Then cut out the drivers with air or land based drones. Then start lobb
