I usually use the trusty car comparison here. There's no point in starting a factory that builds 20-year old shitty Saturns. It's more reasonable to build great cars, and trust that the second-hand markets provide the necessary supply of extremely cheap beaters.

In the not-too-distant past, condos used to deprecate. Now their value goes up with each additional year of wear and tear!
