Question

[117]. Passage:

Handloom weaving survives in a market that rewards speed and uniformity because it offers what machines cannot: texture, irregularity and a maker's judgment in every thread. A weaver adjusts tension by feel, repairs a broken yarn without stopping the story of the cloth, and dyes in shades that vary with water and season. Buyers who choose handloom are not merely buying cloth; they are paying for time, skill and a rural economy that would otherwise lose its young to distant factories. Which detail about handloom does the passage emphasise?

1.
A detail the passage explicitly rejects
2.
An unrelated historical fact
3.
A claim about a different subject
