While you’re right, this normalization may take upwards of a year. This manufacturing is not easy to set up and if the manufacturers see this as a one time purchase, they may also decide not to scale up production. After all, they just started making 2-3x on existing products.

As a front-end dev, I disagree. You can make something optimized for utility from multiple perspectives. It might be for power users or for the ability to see as much data in one place, or even to change and configure as many things as possible. But these approaches don’t necessarily make it user friendly. Sometimes the most usable flow requires deoptimization.
