Be as doubtful as you like. I can think of more than a few modern things that are available for prices that, even a few years or decades ago, would have been considered absurdly cheap. I'm not even all that old, and I remember when people thought that video telephones weren't even technically feasible. Heck, plenty of people alive now remember a time before humans ever even went to space, and now you can have a doodad that talks straight TO space for a couple hundred bucks.

@AlexanderKingsbury@mastodon.social Land or housing are not comparable to those. You can't make land cheaper "modernizing it". In fact, the tendency is the oposite: privatization and concentration. Land is considered a speculative capital reservoir.
