@wav3ydave @Diplomjodler3 experience in other domains makes me wonder if that's necessarily true though. I've seen plenty of people but "better" computers, appliances, cars that were more expensive but not better for their purposes.

Like spending more on slightly lighter parts isn't really an advantage if those lighter parts break more often than cheaper heavier parts. Or are harder to repair or replace in the field from non specialist ships. Or make your bike attract thieves....

@lobsterofrevenge @BastingChemina under one mile wouldn't you just walk?

@django @potustheplant more to the point... I'm not sure what the solution is to crime but I'm pretty sure it's not for each citizen to be in their own steel and glass bubble.
