The book - Fabric of Civilization takes an informative dive on what happened as cotton/wool fabric technology evolved and different bottle necks in the process changed, along with who was compensated more and who lost their jobs in the process.

I didn't read that book but remember the topic a bit. But things have changed, a lot less people back in the days and a lot more limited technological capabilities.. now tech can really cover most of what people do. There's a shift IMO.
