Similar to the boost button on the M16.

The AR-16 was released in the late 50's. (As a cheaper, easier to produce weapon than the AR-10)

Interesting. In German there is the old (biblical) word "Männin". Which is literally the female form of "Mann" (man). Maybe the original language the translation comes from has something similar.

At least they loose exclusivity after 15 -20 years and generics are usually much cheaper.

That is not true. Small biotech usually cannot effort late stage development. They either just get buyed by big pharma. Or they licence the lead compound to big pharma and get royalties. Very few exemptions to this.

Edit: the link you provide cites this FT article as a source for this claim. However the article is about M&A and supports my point.
