My sister can't see the big E on the old school eye charts.

My kid barely can, as well. They're practically blind without glasses.

"We need to stop using paper bags! They're cutting down all the trees!” (a renewable resource)

"We should use plastic bags instead! They're recyclable!” (so is paper, and it's far more economically viable, but plastic is made from petroleum)

So now we use plastic bags made of a much heavier material, so we can reuse them, or cloth bags for a similar reason.

Cloth bags are made from cotton, like paper is made from trees.

Nah. We need to hack the planet.

Cable TV providers in the 70s: "No commercials when you pay for our services!"

Cable TV providers in the early 80s: "Ok, we actually meant no commercials on premium channels, but local channels will, and it's not our fault."

Cable TV providers in the late 80s: "Fine. What we meant was no commercials on movie channels."

Cable TV providers in the 90s: "Uhm, so only on-demand shows will be commercial free."

Nope.

I don't know anyone who starts in 1st even with a full load. Maybe some very heavy haul guys.

In a bobtail, I would routinely take off in 4th or even 5th, in a 10 speed.

Another thing to consider is the amount of torque available.

I have on occasion went through every gear without ever needing to accelerate. Did you know that in a semi trucks, bobtailing, in top gear, that idling the engine will still have you doing about 40 to 45mph.

And due to all the torque, it won't really be lugging the engine either to idle in gear while rolling on flat ground.
