Turbo's are fitted to production vehicles today to squeeze the maximum performance from small emission limited engines.
This can lead to lifeing issues, but as these usually occur out of warranty it's good business for the manufacturers.
[sometimes they use even smaller engines both turbo and supercharged-they don't any more as they failed within warranty and were soon dropped]

Anyway, the turbo analogy; perhaps not the best for those of us who can think.
