Provably false. At least one person found my claim Insightful. Second, I searched my comment for the words "product" and "safety" and I didn't get any hits. I also searched the article for things you claim "we are talking here" .. the words chainsaws, brakes, and appliances .. no hits. Are you some sort of hallucinating AI?

We can't have any nice things because of people like you.

Instead of product safety you end up disabling the whole thing. A person can cut themselves with a knife, therefore you ban all knives. There are a lot of legitimate reasons someone may want to look up pagan rituals. How far do you take product safety ? Ban all airplanes because one pilot went crazy?

In India they can, out of their 1.2 billion people. There's a percentage of parents there who obsess over kids rote academic competitive stuff (spelling bee, etc). If it's achievable by "hey study these books" .. they'll do it. Didn't they get a 5 year old MCSE some years back?

The feature will inevitably get cheaper. Every technology Benz has introduced eventually finds its way to the low cost cars. There's probably nothing about the tech that makes it actually expensive other than the cost of lithium. Worst case you'd have to wait until the patent expires, which is presumably 20 years from now?
