Editorial interpretation
A mathematical-confusion meme reproduces the FAR numbering explanation. Members call it verbose; Dan acknowledges the experiment did not quite land and promises Part 2. This preserves criticism as part of the historical record.

Lesson learned, FAR part 1 memes suck. Tomorrow we see how Part 2 does.

I was thinking of one the other day. It’s the guy pointing at his temple and it goes “if we make everyone responsible for ocs, then when it fails it’s no ones fault”
