The reason for the latter is because very few young folk are becoming apprentices to these ancient crafts. Without apprentices soon, the professional craftspeople will not have enough time to pass down their knowledge and skills, and the more difficult, advanced techniques will be lost. A lot of those craftspeople without apprentices are already in their 70's and 80's. They've got, maybe 10-20 years max before they die, 5-15 years before their body can't do the craft anymore, depending on the type of labor required. There's a lot of professions where, the craftsperson is the ONLY one remaining that has the knowledge of ancient techniques. They're not wrong about the knowledge being lost if they die without passing it on. Sure, modern techniques can mimic ancient crafts, but they generally always create inferior products. And sure, we might be able to recreate the techniques eventually, through trial and error, but it'll take a significant amount of time - even if we already know the recipe and ratios. Just look at how long it took to recreate Roman concrete. We might be able to reacquire the knowledge, but it's always going to be better, easier, and more effective, with an unbroken chain of knowledge passed down than it ever will trying to recreate it from scratch.
@@azoe6764 You're right. It's still a significant problem in the industry. And a significant portion of the problem is the over-profiting done by the middlemen.
