Assuming interoperability to be a good thing, then, coding something like a c# translation of this is a stimulating and useful intellectual exercise relative to like reading a book or solving a prescribed math problem. Assuming coding problems aren't like fossil fuel for jobs or something, and society hasn't yet reached the state where we can just neglect technology and say 'good enough,' given that (at least according to people I see while locomoting around town), there are still diseases, disabilities (physical and psychological), aging, puns, death, overpopulation, homelessness, variety of experience (I don't know what the correct word for this is, but something like 'non-crunchy-multitude-of-choice'), etc. all which may have solutions with sufficiently advanced technology (with the caveat that it may be like a pandora's box). (You could probably superficially post-justify a solution to these kind of problems in society by strapping an RC radio to everyones head and saying 'karma', but I would guess you can't do that without the being enacting this breaking large parts of the social contract, and essentially ridding life of substance, e.g. 'this thing happened to you because you ate a fish when you were a child, and that fish had a family, and so, relatively, your brain is like a fish-size (lets say chicken because birds are actually pretty smart in the animal hierarchy) to this AI we've constructed, and thus it's eating you, and so therefore, its karmically balanced (that's not really a solution is it, I mean it is, but it's like a military tit for tat solution (even if done subtly) rather than a diplomatic / medical type solution, which would provide more leeway for things like basic fight-or-flight response of humans / miscommunication / speed of actual human thought / etc., which doesn't really fit in the tit-for-tat model)' ). Wow I wrote freaking thesis here (and I didn't really put that long of thought into it, so judge as such, like git commit 1 of an more revised thought).
