It's the world we live in
Everything out there has "features" and performance "enhancements" that are designed to make the items easier to sell because of the features and performance, it's not just processors, it's exploding cell phones, automobiles (self-driving), airplanes (self-diving), burning door-bells etc etc etc.
Building something that works solidly is not important these days, building something that you can sell quickly is far more important, where is our world going (icon)?
