    That’s survivorship bias.

    There was a time when humans built wineries everywhere and hoped to attract vineyards.

    Nowadays, you only see those that attracted one, as all other wineries gave up centuries ago

      Right sort of like the belief dolphins always help humans lost at sea but that’s because you only hear the stories from the survivors. No, wait.
