This is straight freebasing idealism. Zero material concern of things like “do we have the climate and soil capable of growing this plant” no, we can completely ignore biological reality if we just bootstrap the can-do entrepreneurial drive hard enough.
probably have to do with the fact that advance economy is so alien to actual manufacturing that they can just pitch stupid shit à la McKinsey and see that sticks

Compared to their actual product, which was a machine that squeezed a bag, it is pretty impressive.
Box with lightbulb is a lot less impressive TBH, at least juicero had moving parts and shit, even if it was ludicrously overengineered
