we know that the microparticles are a problem - the assumption that I'm challenging is that plastic is worse than conventional asphalt.

I can give you that he is condescending towards software and also towards complexity if he sees it as non-complex. And yes, agree that it didn't help (although they dismissed the suggestions before that)

If it was a joke, then he must be. Which he isn't. So it must be another option.

Agreed that it's not a lot, but it was also very small.

He didn't claim it was anything else than straightforward, though, which is why he got frustrated that the idea was dismissed, afaik: https://twitter.com/cmuratori/status/1523028039705055234?t=x...
