You are never trying to sneak in some dry wit in your literal analysis? Sometimes, it looks like you do. In the abstract, is it possible that you are learning through your analytical process that some formulations give you more reach and thus more data for analysis?

That's kind of the point though if you are relaxed while driving in an environment where there can be no pedestrians or cyclists like on highways that's fine. If you are relaxed in an urban environment, the "culture" has either removed pedestrians and cyclists for you or you are going to do it soon
