Why would you expect a Moore's law in a new field?

Gordon Moore only stated his thesis almost two decades after the start of the semiconductor era.

It was an empirical observation based on the history of integrated circuits.

Why would you assume a Moore's law in fields that have never shown anything resembling Moore's law?

Maybe not the constant but the idea that things will get cheaper. Like batteries.

Like gold. We are constantly mining more of it, stands to reason it would become cheaper over time. /s
