> Passerby are generally irrelevant to other passerby

When you are in a super-optimal and franly desirable situation you are never just a passerby and thus you are never irrelevant.

Jennifer Lawrance, for example is never classified as a passerby and thus she's never irrelevant.

In response to your earlier comment, say the orfer of preference is the follwing:

1) Being loved and cheered by a crowd

2) Being ignored by a crowd

3) Being hated and actively threatened by a crowd.

Irrlevancy might be at no.2 , but it's notorious that second place is the last place
