TLDR; printing press copied book that could have been trivially transcribed by hand. TLDR; farm produced food that could have been trivially foraged.

Yes but as a perfect outcome i would say that we need as little code as possible.

Scenarios in your examples are beneficial because of increased amount of

  books printed by press
  food farmed

We don't need more code, we need better code.
