The current situation? Watch the film “Eric the Viking” – the bit where Atlantis is sinking beneath the waves & Terry Jones is denying it is happening – that is exactly what the German OEMs are doing & German politicos don’t know what to do & thus kick the can down the road. I’m sure a similar situation existed with respect to blacksmiths in Germany in 1910 (we are losing business to those new fangled automobiles).
