Tunnels can recoup their cost easily if they are used massively by many people every day. Any reason why you are against building a subway / underground railway?
Yes. Similarly, safety needs to be there even after the aging of materials over product lifetime. So basically when aging is the only variable to be considered end of life date is the worst case scenario.
Fritzbox brand and possibly others updates itself automatically by default. ISPs often also control the devices they ship to clients and install updates as part of a "fleet management".

The display can only show a video well that has this property of only updating parts of the screen but not everything at the same time? What if the video content is like so?
No, measuring light doesn't remove the air quality confounder. Measuring air quality would allow to remove the air quality confounder. What are you smoking?
It's also good practice to chose an appropriate language for the problem. It's not premature optimisation to use a compiled language instead of Python when you already know the code will run thousands of times in a loop because of the application and use a lot of electrical energy in the process.
A part of my question that you didn't go into was, can new knowledge be added in a new version without making the answers with knowledge learned in previous versions non-deterministic?
The answers can be recorded and reviewed. The other points are true, or is there a way to make outcomes deterministic, when compared to previous versions while allowing to add more knowledge in newer versions?
If you are unsure what you are doing, do not do it. For example, I just posted to hackernews. The button in my app says "submit", but doesn't warn me about posting to the internet. Is there any problem with that? No, because I know what I'm doing and anyone using the Internet should too.
