Either way, when you’ve paid $70 for a game, the idea that you then are still going to be bombarded by commercials as you play is pretty damned galling
Oh, I'd say that it pretty much tracks the sports experience that it's trying to simulate.

An average NFL game: more than 100 commercials and just 11 minutes of play
First, Peltier elements are pretty inefficient. Second, I'm dubious about the design
a Peltier element moves heat from Point A to Point B, and the whole device appears to still sit beneath the shirt. I suppose that the hot side is the outer side, but what you'd ideally want is to have hot air blowing as far away from you as possible.
I'm skeptical that it's better to carry a battery-powered Peltier element than to carry something like an evaporative cooler. That's more-energy-efficient, and you don't have the problem of part of the device getting hot.
EDIT: Or, if you can't leverage phase-change from liquid water to water vapor because of high humidity, cooling vests that leverage solid to liquid phase-change.

Sixteen percent of GDP...The United States has tethered 16% of its entire economic output to the fortunes of a single company
That's not really how that works. Those two numbers aren't comparable to each other. Nvidia's market capitalization, what investors are willing to pay for ownership of the company, is equal to sixteen percent of US GDP, the total annual economic activity in the US.
They're both dollar values, but it's like comparing the value of my car to my annual income.
You could say that the value of a company is somewhat-linked to the expected value of its future annual profit, which is loosely linked to its future annual revenue, which is at least more connected to GDP, but that's not going to be anything like a 1:1 ratio, either.

Also, less of, say, the Ford F-150 is done in the US than are Honda's or Toyota's models, so at some point, the question of what exactly one means by "US auto manufacturer" does arise.
