You apparently missed my reference to their importance to the
large-scale monocropping agriculture as practiced in most of the
so-called "developed" world and on which we now depend. However, the
predictable behavior patterns that make them so valuable to agriculture
also make them easy to control.

You're right. I did miss that reference amonst all that verbage.
