Wow. This is a sophism class in just one sentence. This is not a personal criticism to you as a person, but these "arguments" are not solid.
> for the vast majority of products
Quantifier-Shift Fallacy: from something does not exist to it does not exist for the vast majority. A much weaker assertion and not equivalent (also unsourced)
> its more likely
We are not discussing the likelihood, but the truth. You are confidently asserting something based on claimed likelihood.
> that exists only in stereotypes
It is just a stereotype, nothing to see.
Then some comments about automated factories. As if those 2 cannot be compatible (false dichotomy).
This is sophism with zero arguments, sorry.
The quote you are replying to is
> The key to this sort of business model is not innovation, but instead the externalization and compression of cost. Somewhere upstream, people work seventy-five hours a week, in conditions most readers of this website
So we are not only talking about factories (Hasty Generalization). Delivery, for example, could be considered in that quote, as well as pollution, hand-work (most clothing garments are not automated btw) or many others. I am going to recommend a great book I read on the working conditions of a delivery person in China:
