Hey, you are also having fun with keyways.
Pep...they call it planned obsolescence and I am tired of more and more stuff being designed that way. My favorite is two or three years off the assembly line and you cannot get parts...hilarious.
Actually it is greed, ignorance & stupidity
Greed, we all want some thing for nothing so the cheapest will always be the best
Ignorance As we move into the digital age peoples ability at access the quality of build & design diminishes at an alarming rate
Supidity people still buy lottery tickets regardles of the fact that they have a 1000x better chance of being shot by a random passer buy, a 25000x better chance of being killed in a motor vehicle collision.
So you get some blithering mechanical idiot like say Paris Hilton to stand next to a piece of junk and 5,000,000 people will buy it.
Price yours 50¢ cheaper than the competitors machine and you get 5,000,000 more sales
Offer good value for money and you go broke.
Apparently the faries come in after dark into mower factories & sprinkle pixie dust al over the place so mowers magically appear at no cost to the factory whatsoever then benevolent truck driver ship them all over the country for the fun of it, cause they are all nice people who really enjoy driving big trucks that run on air and never need new tyres just so you, who expect to get a pay rise every year for doing exactly the same amount of the same work as you did last year ( cause you are such a special person ) thus you HAVE THE RIGHT to pay less for your mower every year.
