Are you claiming that flowers are shipped entirely (or even mostly) with unused transport capacity that would be otherwise wasted? Because that seems very unlikely.

Where are people reading this from my comment?

>But ... it's crazy that we created giant international supply chains to rush around flowers

The GP's comment made it sound like capacity was made specifically for flowers. I responded that growers were just using existing shipping capacity, and then stated shippers specifically did not increase capacity for flowers.

Where's the disconnect?
