Very well said. I guess another way to think about it is the famous story about 'how to boil a frog'. People tolerate small incremental changes until it is far

Very well said. I guess another way to think about it is the famous story about 'how to boil a frog'.
People tolerate small incremental changes until it is far too late, like the frog that tolerated small incremental increase in the water temperature and now it is boiling...
- glenra 13y agoThe frog-boiling story is false - actual frogs try to jump out when the water gets too hot. So invoking it usually detracts from the argument being made. (If we were like the frog, we'd ignore incremental heat increases until they became uncomfortable, then get out.)
