The choice of being a telegraphist also disappeared when we started using telephones. Telegraphists were never banned though, they just became obsolete. But the choice still disappeared. Boohoo.
Do you propose that we force F1 to keep grid girls against their will? |
False equivalence. The choice of being a telegraphist disappeared because technological advances made that profession obsolete. You cannot say the same with grid girls. Your question is also malformed with the 'against their will' phrase because there were grid girls from F1 who expressed their disappointment with F1's decision, so who is exactly 'their'? If you want to prove your point right, then you need to show me how keeping grid girls in F1 would lead to a loss in profits.
In addition, you are pivoting to a different topic. My original refutation was that while the choices still exist, there are less of them available. If the amount of demand remains the same, but the supply goes down, then that's not good. My argument had nothing to do with obsoleteness, so your argument is ultimately a non sequitor.
