Engineers address real concerns like Resistance, Losses to Heat, Energy Efficiency, and Deadlocks that prevent multicore parallel and concurrent processes. Engineers (at least this Engineer) do not always think about Oppression as a primary Engineering Throughput reducer, yet it has the potential to be a larger problem than all those listed combined. If Oppression was addressed like Deadlock Avoidance, a known problem, a problem that has to be factored in and solved, a problem that can reduce throughput gains to a standstill potential for valued higher, addressed more readily. Oppression addressed swiftly factors into major gains to processing power and parallel computing, research studies. Oppression not addressed is like having your Research Laboratory shut down due to lack of Reseach Ethics implemented.

Faster is a privilege far from a guarantee, far from guaranteed to be used to help reduce oppression and increase Throughput for All in Society.
Reduced Nuclear Proliferation is an important part of Reduced Oppression. Small injustices have the potential to become big injustices.
