What's great about ships compared to for example buildings is that some serious design thinking goes into ships.

Especially modern buildings seem to have very little thought hours per cubic meter spent.

"Thought hours?" "Cubic meter spent?"

Are you using your own units of measurement to communicate with people that aren't you? (And thus don't know how your units of measurement work.)


Hours of (design) thought per cubic meter (of building volume), presumably.


I'm now curious what other, presumably better buildings have in the industry standard "thoughts per cubic meter" measurement.
