<p>I agree with your points on consumer benefits and competition due to outsourcing. But I&#8217;d add that not all outsourced products are of lower quality &#8211; it can depend on the skills and facilities of the overseas providers. Also, competition might motivate businesses to innovate and remain viable.</p>
