You say unfortunately, I say "lowering the cost of production means lower costs to consumers, and/or more valuable stuff getting created".

Everything is a trade-off.

I say unfortunately because the product quality is reduced as a result. So yes, we have may have more stuff, but most of it is seriously substandard.

This may be a positive thing for some people. It's a negative thing for me, though, because it increases the difficulty of finding good solutions, and reduces the number of good solutions that exist.
