Consumer product businesses compared to tech businesses are inferior in two major ways. 1. Lawyers. Trademark, copyright, and patent infringement happens continuously to successful consumer product companies. To enforce your competitive advantages you must pay a lawyer.

I agree with this, but one area that has me wondering if physical product could be better is where: 1) The product has subscriptions 2) Everyone wants American Made products (eg consumables)

Yeah, I definitely agree that there are all sorts of things that can make a physical products business better. Iphone + app store for example. Agree with what you said about 1 and 2. Throw also really big products into the mix (can't ship from China).

That said, China is coming for consumables. Unless we put up tariffs they'll be making more and more foods, vitamins, etc. They've already started doing soap and cosmetics.
