I can go to the drugstore and get a day's nutrition worth of Ensure right now. How long is the waiting list for Soylent? Because it turns out that actually having product available is like, step 0 of marketing.

Besides, I already conceded that Soylent is marketed to hipsters. If its creators had "creativity" or "vision", they wouldn't have reinvented Ensure. It's marketing over substance.
