The Purpose of Quality
Suppose you were the CEO of a manufacturer at OmniCo., a producer of Widgets. Suppose that, in your capacity as manufacturing CEO, you were omnipotent. How would that go? Well, you could simply have the finished product appear from the aether at your customer's shipping dock, and payment would manifest directly in your bank account upon order reception. The finished product would be perfectly uniform and would perfectly meet specifications.
