It's more the idea of "luxury trucks". That's like saying "miniature elephants". Sure, you could breed them, and convince yuppies that they want them. But is that really the best use of your R & D budget?

Research conducted at the University of Oxford has proven conclusively that a cat on a table will inevitably push anything on it off the edge and onto the floor.

“The only obvious conclusion that we have been able to come to is that the Earth must be ball shaped, or cats would have pushed everything off the edge by now.”
