Too logical.

This could stall two country's economies. Why measure actual performance 
of your current model when you can take input from others to learn you 
clearly don't have the very best version of this particular vehicle? 
Similarly, how could the car industry survive if good enough was really 
enough.

But  this is time-nuts so if you want to split moving hairs. you've come 
to the right place.

I just purchased a nearly $3K ham radio to upgrade my $sub-1K radio for 
a few advantages that are cool, but I haven't really needed until I have 
them. So I am not immune from this tendency.

Whatever game one plays it is easy to strive to acquire more than you 
really need.

When I try to explain my games to normal people, I frequently use car 
racers as a model. Big amounts of money spent to achieve something that 
probably doesn't really  matter. But most people can accept the car 
racing concept as something they can relate to, so our strange games can 
actually be sort of sensible when juxtaposed to burning tires.
