Right, but isn't this inherent in the hypothetical requirements here? Being able to query individual usernames for block status?

Because any time you're doing fine-grained work with your cursor, you're looking at it. I'm not talking about games.

I don't think that's self-evident. If the eye tracking is really good, it could obviate the need for a mouse.

Are you asking if all humans take individual actions based on needs? I was clarifying that the OP was not suggesting grand collective action will take place to adapt to climate change.
