It was useful and very interesting.
An insight to the process of how generic device is being born is something that an outsider as myself can only very rarely see.
I see why some people do not understand how it is possible that *Your* factory refuses to make device that *you* ask them to. Such is the economic reality. Bean counters step in and say, "OK. If you really, *really* want us to do this, put $XY,000,000 in escrow to cover our loses this will cause at the end of the fiscal year." Because even if factory is yours, their highest responsibility is still producing profit. Enough money to pay for workers, material, [thousands of other things] and, preferably, some money for the owner or for expansion of facility.
