I'm always confused by these kinds of assessments people make with some unrealistic test. Lumber for building a house doesn't need to withstand bites from a human jaw!

Years ago, Tesla advertised solar shingles that could withstand a bowling ball being dropped on them. Why?! Hail is a thing, but bowling balls don't fall from the sky.

Extending this concept, let's say I want to sell you a new motorcycle I invented. I won't demonstrate how well it rides or how fast it accelerates, but I will show you how deep I can submerge it underwater before the gas tank crumples — 4000 ft! Let's see Harley beat that.
