“The Chaotic Pipe”
We don’t waste time—
we mislabel the valves.
The hack?
Build a junk pipe.
Run the sludge through.
Main intake.
Our payments code?
The clogged membrane. Debugging?
The one pipe that turned the whole plant into a swamp. Garbage Collection!
The fix?
No grand rebuild.
Just procedural surgery:
• Upgrade the valve.
• Watch the flow.
• Repeat.
No one needs a new plant.
One only needs to find
which pipe is drowning the system.
The rest?
Just plumbing.
