It is the standard now, but should it be the standard forever? What happens when we want better features as new tech is invented?



> What happens when we want better features as new tech is invented?

The new tech would prove itself, somehow, and then the standard changed over after there's evidence that the new tech improves more than the cost of the change!


How would a new tech prove itself if manufacturers aren’t allowed to use it in their product? If customers aren’t allowed to try something new, they are never going to be able to determine if customers prefer it.

The only way to ‘prove’ that a tech is better than another is by letting the market decide.


Dropping a Memorandum of Understanding is almost for free. Putting a law out of commission (pun not intended) is a completely different story!
