Frames limitations (battery life, weight) as acceptable trade-offs rather than significant concerns.

Supply chain resilience in semiconductor manufacturing may warrant policy attention. The mentioned 'RAM crisis' could prompt government interest in domestic chip production incentives or trade policy adjustments to reduce supply chain vulnerabilities.
