There's something to modernity.

Advanced metallurgy. Smokeless gun powder. HVAC. Refrigeration. Internal Combustion. Advanced farming technique. Modern medicine.

There's a pretty bold line between, "I need this new $1200 phone because it's 1.2% faster than last year's $1200 phone!" and preserving food or having inexpensive, reliable, and highly effective firearms that are easy to make and obtain. Also, aspirin. I would miss aspirin a lot.
