Consider a hypothetical situation. INDIA has developed a powerful well-engineered aeroplane with specialities that is far more advanced than any other contemporary aeroplane. Its aerodynamic architecture, fuel efficiency, less weight closely resembles a bird, which is an astonishing engineering of nature. But the point is, it is highly costly, and only one is made till now, mass production is quite impossible due to it delicate parts and high cost.
Now the twist comes. Suppose on its first flight, the pilot finds a bird in front of it. There is a provision which allows the pilot to clear any disturbance in the way of the plane. So the driver presses the button and a hail of bullets rushes towards the bird and kills the bird.
Now my question is, the bird was well engineered. It is no difficult to realise that whatever we human beings are doing is to reveal the laws of nature. We can't do anything new in this universe. Everything is already there. Human-made aeroplanes are no doubt good, but still, they are far more inferior to a bird. Here the bird is murdered to save the plane.
Now, my objective is to present the fact that I realised in my early twenties which appears quite astonishing to me is that
" Sometimes scarcity makes thing more valuable than they actually are, or in other words, if good things are very abundant, they lose their value (I am not talking about quality, it's there).
