I disagree. The advent of high-speed internet in poorer countries is only something that has taken place in the past 10 years and it's only going to get worse.
This is almost like a second stage of the manufacturing revolution that happened with the advent of computer numerical control and generally the digitization of the so-called engineering "stack"
Right now, the pipeline is looking super gross for anyone apart from hyper-capitalists, but then again what meat is left to pick off the bone? Pretty much everything is overseas nowadays anyways
- Engineering Prototype is done domestically
- Verification is offshored to low-rate engineers
- Final CAD drawings are offshored
- Final Assembly instructions are offshored
- Production line is designed domestically
- Production line is assembled offshore
- Production is manufactured and shipped domestically at the lowest rate
- Said product is handled in a warehouse that is operated by offshored teleoperators
- Customer support for the end user is offshored
- RMA process is non-existent therefore replacement is offshored
