So does flu. From https://www.cdc.gov/flu/symptoms/symptoms.htm possible serious complications triggered by flu can include inflammation of the heart (myocarditis), brain (encephalitis) or muscle (myositis, rhabdomyolysis) tissues, and multi-organ failure (for example, respiratory and kidney failure). Flu virus infection of the respiratory tract can trigger an extreme inflammatory response in the body and can lead to sepsis, the body’s life-threatening response to infection.

"Companies submitted bids for the Project Aura job. The research agency ... chose Newport Medical Instruments, a small outfit in Costa Mesa, Calif"

This is the problem. Instead of allowing several companies to compete for a large order of new ventilators, the $ were given to one company to be spend on design not on the product.

A "train of thought" is cheap. Author is doing something about the issue, not just talking. What is wrong with promoting ones work?

The better approach seems to be "trial and error," where different states pass their own regulations. This way in 5-10 years it would become clearer what works and what does not.

Why are you trying to push your beliefs on whole country? Why not work on changing net neutrality laws in your state. This way in long run we'd have experiment comparing results in states with net neutrality laws (including different flavors) and without them.
