>An old legacy car is definitely not more complicated than designing and manufacturing a cutting edge silicon made for high performance compute.

A car is more complicated than a connector, at least.

Anyways, the rest of your comment is again taking a humorous one-liner way too seriously. Thanks for the econ lesson though, I guess. I liked the part where you explained to me the basics of supply and demand like I am in 5th grade.

The connectors on a new car cost more than the connectors on a new GPU part for part.
