There's a demand. There are no "if" possibilities in our reality. The demand exists because the companies do not inform the customers that it kills them. Why would they? It would lead customers to not buy their products right? You don't need to be a rocket scientist to know that if a company were to put "it WILL 100% kill you" people maybe wouldn't buy the product?

Also, because I have a slight feeling that you'll outright ignore my examples, what do you think about planned obsolesence?
>inb4 just don't buy products with planned obsolesence
Can you show me a company that sells the best possible lightbulbs without planned obsolesence?
A SINGLE lightbulb product will suffice. Please point me to one so I can buy that and not buy lightbulbs again for the next 30 years.
