Good riddance. Marketing was never meant to make customers better off. It was always a way for businesses to get better off by shoving useless products down peoples' throats. Creating needs was an effective strategy—"look, you didn't know you needed this before, but now you know you want this product!". But even that is not that effective anymore—look at Apple's failed V Pro product.

That's how literally every innovation works. Do you think that fridges that save your food, home computers, smartphones, washers and dryers, garbage disposals, crocs, electric cars, e-readers, online shopping, wi-fi, and thousands of other things that make our daily lifes are useless products that have been shoved down our throats?
Why do you think apples V Pro product failed? Maybe you were just not the audience. Once they release a customer oriented version i am looking forward to it.
The way i understood the rollout for this product is to first target developers and give them time to enrich the so far empty ecosystem.
Release in US, means US will have a head start to adopt this new technology professionally.
