- ceejayoz 3y agoSomeone who uses a hammer all day may very well decide to use gloves - you'll see a lot of them on construction sites - and they'll probably also opt for a hard hat and safety glasses. Consider these their plugins.

- fragmede 3y agoI don't think that analogy holds. If my special hammer let's you go 10x as fast as a regular one, but you need to wear special gloves because otherwise it'll cause blisters, I think I still made a good hammer, just wear the gloves!
