Free and libre and open source are all different things, and the confusion thereof can lead to mismatched expectations. It's not wrong to beg for money, but I'm also not going to joyfully tolerate a hassle because of gratitude or

Another interpretation exists too: maybe obedience and compassion were orthogonal. They reported an increase in the error rate in parallel with the increase in voltage, right? Maybe those who continued into the more dangerous voltage ranges
