      The human body mostly is IMO, especially mine.

      Sure, some of them are gorgeous to look at, but they’re buggy as hell, many of the processes don’t make sense at all, and the hardware breaks down easily if you’re not privileged enough to be able to spend a lot of time, effort, and money maintaining it.

        The warranty sucks too. I can never get a reply from the support team.

        I need an RMA, this unit has been defective since day 1.

        I’m not even sure they’re gorgeous to look at. We just think they are. That really seems like a cheap workaround to another design flaw

          Literally the only way anything can be gorgeous: someone thinking it is.

          You’re trying to disprove the inherently subjective 😄

      To be fair, it’s not designed at all. The human body is just a result of a very long string of accidental changes that made it just a bit less likely to die more likely to reproduce.

      It’s for humidification of the nose and increases the range of smells one is able to smell. What in particular is a bad design about that?

        Personally, I’m near-anosmic anyway and my nostrils STILL dry out during the night.

        I would call some people getting all of the drawbacks and none of the benefits bad design

      It’s one of the better bad designs, in some cases. Something, something self-regulating air flow. Even a broken clock is right twice a day, I suppose.

      If there was any intelligence involved in our design, it was similar to a kid buying aftermarket parts for his car on eBay that then strapped them to one or two bits of ultra high grade equipment. The end result is something like a nice Supra that drives around town making weird farting noises.
