Too bad they didn't say ... "What others are doing lately, we were doing it years ago".

Yep. Most manufactures have two or three basic platforms they build their whole line ups on. Many platforms are even shared across a few manufactures as it helps to split up development costs and keeps parts costs in check. For example the number of cars built on the Lancer platform is pretty surprising.
