If you mean by the fact that humans are still achieving incredible feats regardless of the left constantly trying to stop us, then I agree.
However, as far as the advantage an engine like this offers.
I would say other than bragging rights by the man who did it, it’s pretty useless. Still way cool, but useless just the same.
The engine is way too small, and even if it were not, the cost of mass producing it would be incredibly way too expensive to be cost effective. As you see, it was hand made, so it took incredible patience. He put 1220 hours of labor into it.
However, the human spirit is incredible, and that which man can create is limitless when government is not hindering the progress.
The V-12 engine has been in existence for decades. The reason you're probably unaware of this fact is because they're being used by little know automakers such as Aston Martin, Rolls Royce, BMW, Jaguar, Ferrari, Bugatti and the Toyota Century..........
Don't you think the master machinist who put 1220 of labor into this knows it is probably not functionally advantageous? Do you actually believe that there was any aspect of his effort that didn't know that? Then why do you need to point out the obvious? Perhaps to misdirect and slander?
It's art. And YOU are the loss because you do not see the value of art.
How many fish could you wrap if you ripped out all of the paintings in the Louvre to make them "advantageous"? Didn't you calculate it yet? Why not?
How many machine parts could be made by melting down all of the bronze statues? How many corporate offices could be filled with workers by getting rid of art schools?
Figure it out - and push for rational change. Otherwise, there is simply no advantage in any of it.
