Well, you are somewhat wrong on a couple of your adjectives and soon, completely wrong on all of your adjectives. Technology is finally catching up to the theory which has been around for decades and is gaining traction in many other domains. Technology does an ever-expanding range of functionality better, faster, AND cheaper.
Not where space is concerned. You probably have little understanding of the requirements that go into large scale systems that support the warfighter. While a cell phone can due much more today for less than a computer could do 10 years ago, it does not have to be made to stand the rigors of a high radiation environment, or the shock and loads of launch. We barely have foundries left in this country, much less around the globe, that can make radiation hardened parts that will survive for years or decades in space. Keeping that technology available is expensive. Off the shelf only works for short lived low Earth orbit stuff, and then it cant be counted on past about 90 days. The warfighter need better than that.
