What I'd said: it just feels like so much harder for a human's design to feel valuable now

I'm talking about competition; being valuable within a market; being seen as useful by others.

Maybe my focus on competition wasn't well communicated but you're making a precise but irrelevant point about personal integrity.

Maybe I misunderstood. I agree that not all buyers may appreciate the difference, and experts should educate them. Sometimes the price of their ignorance will educate them too.
