You're not answering my question. In regard to airplanes and computers, there seems to have been an argument that they can't be built in a noncoercive society, but I don't think anyone said so directly, so I'm asking.
If the answer is in the affirmative, then we might go on to consider the possible cost of holding a gun to someone's head to get this or that product of advanced technology. I already made the argument that no necessary limit to the complexity of self-organized systems has been presented, but no one cared about that, so I'm trying to play the game on _your_ court.
