I can think of vague things about reflection of signals and gold-plated electrical connectors. That particular argument deliberately gave only the barest minimum of explanation. To quote it, The reason this works is that some people want to work more than 24 hours per week, so people would not be able to agree on how much a normal person should work. Most people would not understand how this lack of agreement would be beneficial. In short, it was an argument where people could say that if they shared it, this action was implying that they were smart. An argument that includes many pages of explanation does not imply that someone who shared it was smart, only that they don't give up easily. It's the style, especially in social media, to share something that implies you understand something complex. Just look at 'memes' or even 'hashtags'. |
