    I didn’t miss it, I was trying to use it as a rhetorical tool to help the commenter recognize that material conditions keep the things they seem to think are how it ought to be from happening.

    “You think it’s one way but it’s the other.” To steal a phrase from a show. I wanted to use that as a hook to keep the readers interest through what is a pretty dry topic.
