Also less reliable, "back in the old days" mechanical products had pretty loose tolerances, and the entire design was based on tolerating the loose tolerances. That way shit never breaks when it bumps around and is used for years. "High precision" is both wasteful and unneccessary, since once one thing goes wrong it can fuck up like 5 more things instantly.
