To split hairs, your comment is not true for all containerships, just for ships that are not U.S.-owned. I don't think it is a bogus argument, but am happy to be proven wrong. If other ports were able to accomodate the ships you'r

Point 1: Concur with your assessment that the article didn't make the connection clear, but there is a connection. A large part of the issue is that as ships grew larger, the CAPEx required to compete drove many smaller shippers to sel
