When it’s applied to consumer products, tho, it usually is just fancy words, blowing smoke up your ass to trick you into thinking it’s tough and durable.
It’s technically only illegal here in the US if done unsafely, too. So if there were no cars in sight, walking through a red light is ok. Crossing somewhere other than a crosswalk is also okay. Walking out into busy traffic without even looking is illegal. Also stupid and dangerous.
