No, things should be made correctly so the users...customers who paid for it...don’t have to screw around cause the product they bought was rushed to market or made improperly.

No, users and customers don't demand it and will not pay for it. So obviously what we have is a system that allocates resources according to demand, and that took us to the moon. Argue with that.

Compare the quality of tech products to cars.

Some people drive new, expensive cars. Some drive old beaters. Some can’t afford a car and go by bike or walk.

When the government forced cars to add seat belts, air bags, catalytic converters and other things the cost of cars went up. Fewer people could afford cars. People who could not afford cars could not get to work and lost their jobs. As a person who has found many jobs for low skilled, low wage workers, I have personal experience with this.

In tech, Bill Gates never had the best technology, never the best OS, never the best word processor or spreadsheet. But he invented the best capitalist marketing system that made computers cheap and accessible to low income people. Bill Gates capitalist marketing system turned entire 3rd world countries into 1st world countries by producing products of low quality with a lot of bugs.
