T2,

Have you seen any comments or evidence that select processes are becoming less people intensive? That has always been an impediment to more product or less costly ones.

You mention 3 hour process for production, but I am not sure if you mean they are collapsing tedious human work and replacing it by other non-human processes, or they've made currently non-human processes even more efficient.

Anyway, the vector for efficiency is in the right direction, but wonder about just how labor intensive this business still is...
