It improved the quality of life of people who didn't have to spend all day washing floors.
Isn't the point that house prices are high because they've not been automated? And also that people expect to buy a house using a massive loan over decades.
Although from the videos it looks like the brick walls don't actually hold anything up half the time, so might as well replace them with brick patterned wallpaper

House prices are high because land prices are high. There are some cities where permitting is a nightmare and the "brainy" people displaced the "brawny" people but those are the exception.

Idea: Assemble the wall paper on the ground with a machine and install it in one go.
And did that actually improve everyone's quality of life? Or did it just increase the cost of positional goods (check out house prices in the West)?
