The whole point is to not maximize JUST the profit. For normal people, it's not all about money, it's also about the society in general.

So far I see it more like "you buy a car to take you between cities, but you end up routinely driving even just 1 km to a store, +50 kg overweight and then prematurely dead due to a heart attack."

But sure, if the most important thing is to mass produce tons of shitty code, it's your life - just don't give people dumb advice on what they NEED to do. :)

Yes, but that's exactly what I meant - the idea is prescientific.

Early on and for obvious reasons - it is pretty easy to observe in oneself, much easier than discovering electrons. ;)
