If we're being real here: it's excellent framing for their customers who very likely does this but slower (and with an equal amount of empathy). The framing is excellent in terms of the basics of pitching: know your audience identify bottlenecks, present a solution to remove bottlenecks, and clearly demonstrate how.

The optics of presenting this in a public domain full of people who relate more to the factory worker than the middle manager is indeed tonedeaf, though.

Are factory managers that dumb that they can't figure out what its actually for?

Isn't the most popular clothing brand in tech Patagonia?

I'd be more worried about the origin of the electronics

good way to put it. how do you plan to get rich form this top signal? short a specific company?

Successful shorting seems to be damn near impossible in this economy. It's just too irrationally optimistic. Maybe this is changing under Trump, but most of the famous short sellers (James Chanos, Hindenburg Research) have closed shop
