there's a similar claim about the toffee in almond roca.

it's just "what do you do with the leftovers so you don't have to throw them in the trash".

it could also just mean that they never clean the machine makes them.

feels like a case of a thing taking advantage of its smallness and then finding it can't scale past that smallness without losing those advantages.

meshtastic looks interesting, although

1) it looks geared towards hobbyists. i don't see the majority of folks being up for soldering stuff together. someone would have to build a thing and then that would have to be a thing and so on etc
2) unclear as to how well it would handle traffic at scale.

As long as there is money to be worried about, there will be business interests somewhere that will override ideals sooner or later.

Unless of course you plan on building Amish-level self-sufficiency into your model.
