More charitably, the signaling could be: “keep the government as small as possible, but no smaller than that”, i.e. use things that basically mostly work and quit expending resources addressing every edge case, particularly when it’s performative (slight font variations) rather than obvious (a ramp to get into a public building)
- oblio 11mo agoMicrosoft Office (and Windows) changed the default font more than a decade ago. Changing it back is the exact definition of performative work. Edit: 19 years ago. Almost 2 decades ago!

- Propelloni 11mo agoThat's very charitable--especially considering that leaving the font alone in the first place would have been the smaller option. And don't get me started about the current meddling of the executive in my private life? I haven't had a more intrusive administration since living in Singapore.
