Moore's law and friends is a good example. Almost every important dimension of computer design got looser and cheaper past PoC. Something like high-speed rail is a good counter-example. Nothing got looser and cheaper past PoC.

The design space has to expand and get cheaper and easier so fast that human ideas about good points in that space to occupy can barely keep up.
