So under a ban rest-of-world gets to use cheap open-weight models but American companies/individuals must only use only ‘approved models from US for-profits’? Doesn’t seem like that kind of protectionism will be popular or politically tenable. Not so long ago US chose cheap TVs over maintaining the country’s manufacturing base.

(Despite what you wrote it’s also really hard to imagine that enforcement wouldn’t leak like a sieve. Unser sufficient economic incentives [which are the predicate for the ban], loopholes will be found.)

It’s a pointless affectation that distracts from your technical content.

The evidence for your behavior being distracting/provocative is right here in this thread.

This fantasy of the line workers getting rich at cushy jobs does not seem to be related to reality?

Sorry 1 does not make sense. It's not like I bid on a house based on its square footage, and then only find out the address when I win.

Even in the US, walkability scores, satellite photos, maps of transit and bike lanes, commute estimates, are all common enough on real estate sites. I think you just be seeing may be observing people's expressed preferences.
