@thollief Right, I'm familiar with the metatphor. I'd add a similarity with the early days of radioactivity, when such substances were used everywhere including in kid products and beverages, as well as Thalidomide and CFCs.

These shiny new technologies were initially crammed everywhere. History shows that "progress" can and has been stopped or highly limited.
