Honestly, I'm loving this process because you discover so many situations where the answer is "Why not? Uhhh shit, I don't know, actually. You're right, this is stupid. Why does everyone do it this way?" Mine is 2, so most of the situations so far are just about English rules. (Though every language has stupid inconsistencies) But there are many things like this in the world. I'm looking forward/dreading trying to balance "OK, from first principles, you're right. But in order to exist in society, you need to do something differently. It's important to recognize when you need to try to fit in. And also important to recognize when it's worth breaking those rules. And even if you choose not to break them, you should be aware of the underlying purpose or lack thereof" I think it's an impossible task. My kid is going to hate it. I'll do my best.
