it's more convenient for me to put a frozen ready meal in the oven for 30 minutes than it is for me to make dinner, even though the act of making dinner might take less than 30 minutes
but isn't that just based on the time preference of whatever you are giving up during the time you have to actually think about & make dinner when you otherwise would be whilst "cooking" food someone else made.
I was unaware of convenience being made up of anything in addition to time-preference.
