The point of technology is to make people’s lives better.

Out of curiosity, when you take a bite of a burger do you call it a product?

When you watch a movie do you call it content?

What you and I are saying is synonymous. I’m simply reusing language that the post I’m responding to used. And also de-glamorizing/de-romanticizing things a bit, sure.

And given that fast food is the pinnacle of sustenance as a product and Hollywood has been content-brained since 1977, sure!
