If I bought a horse and got bull shit, I’m returning the horse and not buying from “Bob’s horses, definitely not bulls” store again.
Comment on But what if I really want a faster horse?

Hmm. You see, a car is better than a horse. Not only because of speed. Because of the convenience of usage too.
You don’t want a faster horse. You just don’t want more bullshit for more price.
You want convenience.

Better is relative. Also its unfair to compare one species (car) against many possible specialized species (cars). In example you don’t need to repair an expensive car, you don’t need electricity or oil and fuel (and many other stuff). Depending on where you are in the world, a horse might be “better” suited than a car.

Horses can go places cars cannot. You have completely missed the point.

Some cars can go places horses cannot. You have completely missed the point. I’m not discussing the intricate nuances of the provided analogy.

OK, I’ll bite. Where can cars go that horses cannot?
