I especially liked this part:

"It's a common story in the human species. First, we want to achieve a
goal. Second, we discover that we are all different[2] and that we
need some rules to organize our work. Third, we make the rules really
complicated to fit every corner case. Fourth, we completely forget the
goal of those rules and we apply them blindly for the sake of it.
Fifth, we punish or kill those who don't follow the rules as strictly
as we do."
