I can completely imagine it. We would finally have that competition people always talk about. Perhaps the actually best solution, instead of the cheapest to mass produce (not that it's not nice to get things cheap). It's a common misunderstandingthat "private" would mean "private money only" when it's usually state-funded to a high degree.
Thanks for the assessment. I do find it hard to convince people of BI, for reasons, and I will invest myself more into it. Underlining the upsides is a very good idea.
