I guess I'm not going to try figuring out the cyclops thing.

About money, remember that when people were small groups, economics was organic networking. Individuals brought in what they could and it got shared to some extent, but after the groups got larger, systems of accounting were devised and on that level, money is an accounting device. The network formalized. Credits and debits.

Then, as people tend to be object oriented and focused, these receipts became commodities in themselves.

So we have to step back and recognize the more elemental function of networking society together, as simply turning the money into confetti doesn't seem to work. If you can't cover the debts, the assets are worthless.

Leaving physics to a later date as well, like after the Webb goes up.
