But the market for slop machines is fairly small, so eventually someone ends up holding the bag. They bought the slop machine, but no one wants their slop. How dare they? This is artisanal slop.

Slop machine sellers pitch their machines by alluding to "productivity" - and yeah, they can produce slop faster than anything has produced slop ever before. But outputs are worthless. Without a market, all that slop is just waste. If you wanted a machine for making waste you'd get a dog or a baby.

Since the benefit is "productivity" it only benefits producers - as long as they can find a market for the output produced (slop). Hi! That market is you. But first they have to convince you to consume their slop, that it's just as good as the stuff that takes time and money to produce.
