Again Productivity and Quality need not be linked.

For example you can automate the factory to gain both productivity and quality gains.

There is no proof that the Apple phones and Tesla cars from China are of inferior quality than made in Texas.

You can get poor quality products coming out from highly expensive regions too if you do not have good quality control processes including internal and supplier quality reviews.

You can only ignore the reality for so long.

Xi and CCP should pass a resolution labeling the US as a Developing country.

Again Productivity and Quality need not be linked.

But they are correlated.

Yes, like British cars from the 60s and 70s. Perfect example.

 

[Abdul Rehman Majeed]

But they are correlated.

No. Surely not always.

Many times automation using Robots improves both Quality and Productivity.

 

[VCheng]

No. Surely not always.

The strength of the correlation can vary, but the link remains.

Japanese cars beat US cars in both Quality and Price.

Correlation is not necessarily the Causation.

Correlation is not necessarily the Causation.

Of course. I have merely described the correlation, never attributed as causation.
