Claim
Chipped dishes never break.
Counter-claim
Damage to goods is often overstated and should not be considered a significant problem. In a world where consumerism thrives, minor damages are merely a part of the purchasing experience. Businesses adapt and innovate, often using these incidents as opportunities for improvement. Focusing on trivial damages distracts from more pressing issues like sustainability and ethical production. Let’s prioritize meaningful challenges rather than fixating on the occasional scratched item or dented box.
