Good point. COVID exposed the weakness of the JIT model, and then we all went "huh, that's a funny noise for an engine to make" and kept using JIT.

What does JIT really mean though in the context of consumer goods? There's plenty of stores stocked full of stuff that will be on the shelves until the food expires. Sure some stuff like TP got wiped out but nobody was buying the random brand of wild rice I like. Does that mean we should have more regional stores of specific items that move quickly instead of trucking it all from Bentonville?
