You forgot entirely about all the neat bulb-changing devices
that we could make with our machinery. Stuff to make it easier to reach
those difficult bulbs or to simply avoid getting out the ladder, which
of course would take much less time to do than to make the bulb-changer
and aso removing the justification for all that necessary machinery in
the basement and the swarf tracked upstairs.
You also forgot to remind us that easily burned-out bulbs are
due to a Liberal conspiracy to separate us from our money, since they
can't easily find new ways to tax us anymore. They collect tax on light
bulbs instead.

And the damage to the US manufacturing base caused
by installing foreign-made lightbulbs.

And the fact that the most basic lightbulb changing
skills are no longer taught in our school system.
