This might be the most short sighted article I have ever read. One of humanity's greatest achievements was the creation of the intermodel shipping container(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermodal_container). We literally would not live in the world of convenience we have today without it.
But imagine what the curmudgeon of the day had to say about this. "Why do I need to use this specific container? This container has all these problems... and on and on"
