Great. The two richest men in the world make crappy furniture and buggy software. You're sounding like Ralph Nader. The center of any market is by definition, mediocre.

You're sounding like Ralph Nader. The center of any market is by definition, mediocre. And the center of gravity of mediocrity (a very elastic term) in any given market is dragged down by shoddy products. Overall car quality has risen dramatically because first the Japanese and then American car makers paid more attention to quality assurance - which means a mediocre new car made this year has vastly better quality than a mediocre car from the late seventies.
Your definition places the cart in front of the horse.

The center of any market is by definition, mediocre. No, it's median, not mediocre.

You're sounding like Ralph Nader. That's a great analogy: a man that sees everyhing wrong and has created nothing in his life.
