Every application of an ergonomical need is always based on an economical need.

So the ergonomy naturally functions as a finished product evolved out from an economical factor.

Read the above definitions. Without having an economical need how applied an ergonomical need???????

That is why I said, first it is economical and later classified into ergonomics. Hope it is much more clear to everyone now. I put it here because the genuine doubt of Mithran may create some confusion to others.

Anyway thanks and congrats Mithran for making it more precise with your valuble arguement..

ergonomics
The study of the design and arrangement of equipment so that
people will interact with the equipment in healthy,
comfortable, and efficient manner.

no panjam for definitions in this world..:)

When we fry the Pappdam in boiled oil it bubbles up.

What is the reason?

(No approximate answer to this question.)

air expands when heated ?

all the answers for this above question I have given already in my above posts.

if you want to argue still..I don't know for what reason

I already explained the more expensive problem is the shelves space...

you have to think this problem from that main point.

not saving a few pences in the bottle's cost. because reaching in the hands of the customer is

the biggest issue. and what are the solutions?

I don't have any more explanation on it.

Or what aims it?

Even if they save in production of it, they will spend more in packing plus the retailer has to give more space on his shelves.
So such a saving will not give any extra gain. Shelves space is a very big problem in marketing in large modern super market environments.

may be, but even because of this reason, dealers may give preference to their competitor.

like shelfil 30 pepsi bottles or 35 coke bottles vakkam ennanel dealers may prefer coke, because ultimately that would result in better revenue .
