First space was the luxury, now it is time.
In Tokyo you knew the restaurant's price not from the menu (hidden) but from how crowded the place was. An empty restaurant with lots of space between tables would be very expensive.
Now time is the ultimate luxury. you can only get it by divesting yourself of things and information. The addiction to new information is just another kind of shopping. The person on a shopping spree has no time.
Travel distorts our sense of time; the pandemic has changed things but only by deforming, denting; the basic geometry and topgraphy of time mean it remains the ultimate luxury.
Notice the often unlined and bizarrely young looking faces of reformed heroin addicts (those who get out before it's too late); they have spent so long wasting time it has forgotten their appearance, passed them by looking for more obvious victims to age.
