It would be very difficult for many new companies to get the word out about their new product. Innovation would suffer.
If you can't advertise for the AirFryer, how do you get people to know about this new product and what it can do? Mouth-to-mouth is too slow and inefficient for most products. How often do you drop by a kitchen store just to check out if there is any new invention?
I wasn’t saying advertising served no purpose and had no benefit. I just asked a question to point out the absurdity of the comparison. Perhaps ads are like bacteria, both good, bad and indifferent. But specifically calling out the fact that you can’t live without good bacteria makes the comparison ridiculous.
