Reminds me of a story/joke where a guy hires, say, a plumber to fix a boiler. The plumber shows up, looks at the boiler, pulls out a hammer and whacks it once, which fixes it. He then asks for 200 dollar-bucks, at which the client balks pointing out it was a 2 min job he could have done himself. The plumber then provides an itemised invoice:
* hammer-whacking: 10 dollaridoos
* acquiring expertise over 30 years to know where to whack: 190 dollaridoos AI6YR Ben (npub1ucv…5a8g)
