but, see, that's like the crux of it...if you want to focus on some
impersonal process that's fine, i guess, "manufacturing follows lower

unnecessity of it, the settling for being rich pricks when they (as
Fleetwood Vibe w/r/t the diamond thief) could've done [so many better
things, almost][my addition] anything) is what's most impressive -
breathtaking even...
