I think you're missing the point. The point is that the technology isn't about the things, it's about the people and how it affects your life.
Nobody cares that the carousel is a wheel. Just like nobody cares that your phone has a 1gz processor, or that your display has 1080dpi. It's that a 1gz processor makes animations smoother or programs run faster so you can get things done. The 1080dpi is so that you can see your photos or video in life-like quality.

I think you mean 1080p, seeing as the iPhone 4's "retina display" is only 326 dpi.
Although I'd imagine a 1080dpi screen would look quite life-like.
yes, that is what I meant, though at the same time, the confusion in technology I think further proves the point.

Right. For example, the technology and social practice of a cable TV show can lead folks to incorrect conclusions about how to pitch technology.

Uh... those are all false statements.

Sure. Or for some other purpose, depending on what you do. That's not what the linked clip is about, though.
