Right, I understood the intended abstraction, after the 2nd or 3rd skim.

Just that even analytical people tend to think "associationally" when they see certain keywords -- and one has to keep in mind that not too long ago, people in many of the countries that software development is frequently outsourced to were, in fact, thought of as monkeys, pretty much (or something on the human-monkey spectrum).

So whenever I see associations like that creeping into my own writing, I try to dial it down.
