Do you prefer individual prices on items or to pay by the pound? What if one day, they just started weighing our carts of general merchandise and charged us by the pound? It'd be quicker, but would our economy get messed up? I mean, most high priced items, like gold or gasoline, go by weight or amount now, anyways. Is it these general items, like groceries and decor, that even us out, provide competition?

With things getting lighter in the technology section they'd lose a lot of money so they'd simply return to bulking it up again, add some lead into it just to get more profit out of it.
