> Detroit Syndrome is a form of age discrimination in which workers of a certain age are replaced by those who are younger, faster, and stronger, not to mention endowed with new skills better suited for the modern workplace.
Does a certain 20yo junior writer for a Web site resent the senior writers?
I think this is more a statement about the Detroit auto scene being objectively behind other areas. Yeah age discrimination plays a part but in this case it's actually justified as opposed to just being cheaper.
The syndrome, reported in 2011, gets its name from Detroit, and more specifically from its reputation as a manufacturing hub for automobiles, in which newer models would replace the older ones on a regular basis.
