Plus, there's something else to consider. Every generation it takes longer to make. A 6G will take much longer to make compared to a 5G, which took longer to make than a 4G and so on.
So it stands to reason that either Shannon lets somebody in that he trust enough to expand his productivity (Shannon, if you want to give me an I-won't-betray-you sub first, I'm fine with it, all I want to do is learn), or he cuts down on the amount of programs he creates/upgrades.
If he doesn't have to upgrade all AYP programs, he could upgrade WM2 instead, which I'm sure more people would buy if it contained the latest tech than the AYP's at a higher price even. Or he could consider new programs like that Writer one, or the Renaissance Man. Less programs that do more equal more time for Research & Development.
A second thing to consider: since 5G/6G programs can only be run one at a time, his customers won't buy them all. How many people are running cycles of AM/SM/WM? Or BASE? Boom, that's another 6, 12, 18 months during which they won't buy or run another program. So by combining programs where possible into 5G/6G, we are effectively able to get the benefits of multiple programs while only running a single (higher priced) one. It almost becomes a necessity at this point. Either combining, or finding a way to condense 5G 6-stagers into 6G 3-stagers that make your brain melt, something like that.
@Eslima, how about making the phrasing more generic, attracting the perfect mate or spouse? That would make it applicable for both sexes, right? Although changing girlfriend into boyfriend or wife into husband is truly a minor change, so if there's enough requests for it...
