There's a lot of beefing and complaining going on here, hearkening back to the early 20th century when doubtless the same complaints were heard about the Ford assembly line:
1. This guy's gonna put us craftsmen/ex-bicyclemakers out of business
2. Yeah it's easy to make a black car on an assembly line but watch out when they ask him to make one in colour
3. This guy has some kind of hidden agenda; I don't care if this technique will save my company thousands of dollars -- I'm not going to be hooked.
All of which makes me think this guy's on to something....
