minimal effort production
Etymology
'lightly-produced' originates from the combination of 'lightly,' meaning 'with little weight or effort,' and 'produced,' meaning 'created or manufactured.'
'lightly' and 'produced' have been used separately in English for centuries, but their combination into 'lightly-produced' is a more modern usage, reflecting contemporary production methods.
Initially, 'lightly' referred to physical weight, but in this context, it evolved to mean 'with minimal effort or resources.'
