It is marketed as such, but I see that as an insult to my intelligence and a bar with which to measure expectations among my fellow countrypersons.
My first Samsung phone was very low end from back in the early naughties when they were insignificant. They had far better connection reliability compared to anything else at the time. Samsung’s coup of the market was their investment in cutting edge fab nodes. For Japanese car manufacturers it was the just-in-time supply chain and teams based organization with better pay in the assembly line with a far better distribution of responsibility than the antiquated labor systems that trade unions remained insistent on maintaining due to their simplicity and ineptitude for change even after a superior system is demonstrated.
If you can objectively think about the timeline of the late 80’s and early 90’s, if monolithic Toyota, Honda, and Nissan dealerships had appeared to completely overtake the American manufacturers in the number of models available, options range across models, and longevity while the total number of sales for these brands far exceeded Chrysler, GM, and Ford, it would be a politically polarizing situation in a country with
deeply xenophobic tendencies. Splitting up the brands made the numbers more palatable against the American brands, even though Chrysler was already nothing more than a label on nonunion foreign made goods. This was a political move for the Japanese auto industry and part of the Regan era cutting of the American middle class and labor. It was an admission of our absolute ineptitude across the board; were not smart enough to remain flexible in business and labour; we are not smart enough to understand the complexity of available products like the rest of the more intelligent world. The two paradigms are correlation by an assumed ineptitude that ironically most are still proving if they can not step into the abstract self awareness required to see past the hand holding spin doctor narrative to ask hard questions about their reality and stomach the results objectively.
