You may be right, but my point is only about how easy this can be to do.. Cars are still a complicated issue.. At least to me it is.. Yet these light bulbs are simply easy and can be adopted by anyone right now.
I agree with your point, but I think the light bulb is a fast, easy and simple act to take, comparably to the car issue which is do-able, but a little more energy demanding for people who are a little lazier and don't care that much. This lighting thing affects everyone, and everyone needs light, so might as well.
