The problem that a small and medium manufacturer has is centered around strategy. Not automating costs the jobs because it costs you the entire market, your availability in the market.

Those who are proposing rip and replace, they shouldn't be doing that. And then we'll get into this chat which was just crazy, which was just for fun.
