Freight consolidation changes the answer to authenticity checks at container scale, which is why small and large buyers reach different conclusions.

Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.
Freight terms should be named explicitly, because an unclear incoterm is the fastest way to lose a relationship.
