He's not entirely satisfied with that answer, and it's probably clear, but even he isn't really in the habit of diving into his more philosophical opinions and frustrations with their society the way it is. He's only ever gotten pushback for it. But-- "It does seem... almost silly, I guess. The whole point of all these is to make our star better, more beautiful. But they're all so focused on the numbers and performance and each creation being perfect. And I agree we shouldn't be careless about what we make, but..." he pauses, giving a little shrug. "I don't know that perfect is what we should be aiming for. I like things that are a bit different." But that is, apparently, just him.
