Taxing ICE vehicles hurts poor people who can't afford buying new EV even with subsidies, while subsidizing EV's doesn't. So I would argue it's more sustainable from a social perspective than a punitive tax. Eventually u

Most mosquitoes are harmless, so getting rid of all of them would be incredibly stupid. Getting rid of only species which carry malaria is another matter entirely. Also, the fact humans have destroyed a lot of biodiversity already is no exc

I would argue that historically MSFS series has indeed been more of a platform and an ecosystem than anything else. It's predecessor Flight Simulator X also had quite shallowly modelled default aircraft, yet over the years third-party
