    I mean it makes total sense the minute you think about it at all.

    • some middle managers year end goals include this unpalatable feature
    • they release it
    • public freaks out
    • pr walks it back a bit
    • that managers back at work the week after trying to get that feature in because they need to justify the work they just did on it for better compensation

    It’s the same with laws.

    It’s very hard to get the electorate united to oppose something but if they manage to unite and oppose a bill the lobbyists are back at work on Monday pushing it by a different name.
