Its stuff like what you outlined that drove me into product management. Technically better almost never easily translates to market success. you think TCP/UDP is bad? we are stuck with light water reactors because they were the first commercially viable plant design. Had a lead cooled reactor been viable before that we could have a much different nuclear power landscape. People could implement a new technology, but getting people to use it is the realm of sales, marketing, and the dark side of tech.

Wait til we look back at Li-ion batteries. We're blowing our wad on a technology that will likely never meet the need, which makes innovative technologies that actually do meet the need much less likely to be successful.

Worse is better.
