The division of labor is limited by the extent of the market

And so it is with space. Like so much of history, advances are going to depend on increasing levels of demand which enable the division of labor and innovation. And also like much of history, people who scoff at it as something eccentric or far in the future because they've relied on projections of the past are going to be surprised.

    And the division of labor expands when those in it decide it's economical to spend resources on expanding the division of labor.
