It's modernism, a mental disability that because something looks futuristic, it must be better. One of the main symptoms is an obsession with measurement; a ball maximizes volume to surface, and because that number is more than another number, therefore it is better. Other symptoms of the condition are a complete lack of imagination; a near physical inability to imagine a thing or conjure an experience in your minds eye without it existing. Patients tend to eventually suffer from complete mental sclerosis. It's been an endemic illness since at least the 20th century.

(the only people left living in the sphere homes are students and a few other young people with low income) This is why modernism is seen by some as related to narcissism and psychopathy.
