  • Maintaining idle production capacity is expensive. Really expensive, for such specialized tooling. And war has changed a lot since 1918, artillery is no longer a lone fighting force like it once was. Countries have chosen to tool for different types of armament in a lot broader strokes.

    On one hand it would help locate foreign agent bots/bad faith actors faster and recognize vote manipulation by bot farms.
