The whole thing seems very confused. Anyway let’s build space elevator?
Why walk or jog of the car can do it for you?
When I was shopping for a water distiller there was only one large one but branded for ten different Chinese companies. (And They all had the same dangerous flaw where water could spill on the electrical plug.)
I guess preferential treatment could be the only issue?
Really cool times when lots of people published blogs and everyone had rss readers.
You could get really sophisticated with quality checking reviews.
(We tend to believe all review systems have to be bad because that’s all we see. But most reviews systems are broken because a working system is a conflict of interest for the platform they’re on.)

There’s risk in every aspect of life and we can’t baby proof everything.
