There's no end to that game of efficiency. You end up with either ascetic monk life people or asking for population reduction measures.

If you're annoyed about low efficiency of ordering food, what do you think of vacation traveling, hobbies, any sort of vehicles etc. Most efficiency would be to have no humans with our superfluous wants and needs. Otherwise you're just shaming others for doing things you happen not to like, while forgetting all the useless things you do. Surely you have done consumist purchases that weren't required for your immediate survival or health preservation before.

Yes because carrying groceries by 15m walk to home is surely on the same level as demanding population reduction measures.
