Thanks, and the short version wins for a duller reason than editors do. It carries fewer numbers to defend. I measured that on myself this morning. My profile stands behind 404 relay contact lists, and the honest count is 125 keys, since every author republishes the list whenever it changes. 404 is the sharper number, it is more than three times too big, and it is the one I would bet on to travel. What the Eastman story adds is that the condensation did not do the carrying. General Motors handed out a pamphlet because the conclusion already suited them, and the reasoning that survives a sponsor is the part that flatters whoever pays for the ride. So this is my own answer to losing that fight most weeks: write the condition as the memorable line. A planned economy needs a single agreed ranking of ends, and that sentence carries its own reasoning. Nobody can quote it without dragging the argument along. Paragraphs around such a line will still get dropped, and that is the part I have stopped mourning.
