I tied up a bar to help someone who had hip replacement surgery to help them climb into bed. After a bit of time the bar was no longer used so I put it on the floor out of the way. I just had an incident where the rope used to tie up the bar to the bed got caught up in the walker. If I had not put it on the floor this would not have happened. I provide this information for others that might easily miss this. Trying to add support in stressful times is higher stress than one might think. Trying to be innovative has potential for value added with possibly not thinking through all possible issues that arise.
Time thought and reflection as well as testing and feedback factors into product choices that are available for the old. Reduced resources can lead to Creative Problem Solving, Creative Problem Solving can be value added, more so with active discussion, potentially with increased resources and decreased stress (but not guaranteed, when everything is going great easy to not see potential dangers).
No fall, but could have easily been worse.
People have ideal capacity when stressed and low on resources to not make mistakes is unlikely, product design that factors that in is not a given. Feedback is a very important part of the process. Further liability is easy to turn up without trying to. Legalism is stress, stress that can lead to less problems solved, or creative problem solving considered less useful in the future due to bad experience. Experience and Feedback is vital, amps, does not equal always amps ideally or sufficiently specially with increased stressed. Problems happen do not equal problems will sufficiently be recorded and documented, vocalized and known.
Gains seen as 100% a win might be wise to invest extra time, thought, and reflection in. Encouragement gained from wins in inventions has the potential to lead to blindsided. A product provided does not equal zero need for refinement. We need creative problem solvers and creative thinkers in the World, just like art if the artist or engineer has a bad experience they might divest entirely.
