    Yeah your ship is a good example. So many can’t get to the east coast US due to size, some countries just can’t/wont accept them, can’t fit through Panama, or unloaded efficiently…

    The height is the suez/Panama canal, nearest river, etc… it’s a choke point.

      yes, the point is, thing grows to infrastructure size, no matter what size you make your infrastructure.

      See also: more lanes =/= less congestion

          hmm. semantics maybe, but i wouldn’t say “induce demands”.
          more like “oh, look, we can make shuttles 10mm higher, and the Ritual travel luggage of Soyletvandis will fit vertically inside, using much less space.”

        It always makes traffic so much worse, since folks can and will weave through the cars and inevitably hit their breaks after cutting someone off.
