      I don’t know why both of you seem to think that is something gamechanging. You’d think that, if you realized something was being used excessively to cut out labour, that having to use more labour would make whatever that memory was being used to do more expensive, because now there’s increased memory cost and more labour for optimization.

      Object permanence.
