Efficiency + Convenience.
Not everything is industrialized. A backyard garden, a freelance editor, even a chef with a hands-on restaurant. These folks are building a practice and producing value, but they haven’t embraced industrialization.
That happens when management steps in, productizes, routinizes and optimizes.
Industrialization produces huge gains in productivity, but it’s also a bit brittle and takes some of the humanity away from the work.
Efficiency first.
And then, convenience. Making it convenient to sub in new parts or new workers. Making it convenient to work with vendors and customers. Any color you want, as long as its black.
Industrialism produces its own rewards, but at the cost of flexibility and side effects.
