> Having your product out in the world with a brand name on it is a form of advertising

I didn't say the product had a branded logo on it. Many products do these days, but not all.

It's not hard to imagine a world where logos aren't everywhere. Even today, I don't buy clothing with prominent logos.

You are completely missing my broader point here. Advertising is a small, superficial part of culture. People have participated in culture for thousands of years, acquiring items and ways of doing things. They don't need advertising to do this.
