I don't think the examples you are giving are taking your argument where you want it to be. Nobody has replaced a microwave with an easy bake oven. They aren't the same thing at all, and nobody is proposing such a thing nor the equivalent anywhere else.


Maybe not, but they replaced dishwashers that used to take 1 hour to clean a load with ones that take 4+ hours.


except, by your own admission, nothing has been replaced?

you can still push the quick wash button.

the only difference, is that the default choice trades off cleaning time for energy savings.

what is your argument against consumers having a choice?
