The process of building and deploying artefacts, products and tools isn’t (exactly) akin to other activities like eating food (which gets shit out later).

Structures live forever, as in they operate every second and crumble due to external factors (entropy in general).

So it’s not fair to compare tinkering, building, testing pieces of artefacts to other menial activities.

Habits can ensure purity of said artefacts but it’s not something that should be externally pushed (if there is a lack of meaningful effort).

That signals an entire different problem altogether.
