    Are we likely to do less of it careening off the cliff, though? Because nothing has slowed it yet…

    Besides, I feel like the maintenance and, probably, management of it would require a separate fund so it might not be cheaper for the shipper, but hopefully cheaper than the fines for not implementing it (assuming we stick with capitalism which… meh, we shouldn’t anyway, it’s pretty exhausted at this point)
