The simple argument as to why this wouldn't make conservatives happy is that they want as many babies as possible: preaching for big families, destroying contraception, abortion rights, etc. Birthrates were falling but the orphan-crushing machine requires new blood.

In that sense as weird as this 4B movement sound it's most definitely a big middle finger to that all.

You need to know where to look for said evidence, this is one new lead. Measure planet wobble for a few years and see if there's anything. Other experiments can and will be carried in parallel in the meantime.

Godot definitely has sponsors which while not directly being "customers" are still very important when it comes to financing the development of the engine

Having said that I want to believe current sponsors won't have issues with the Godot Foundation here

[...] it was decided that the language would be called “ECMAScript” instead. (Microsoft happily offered up “JScript”, but no-one else wanted that.) Brendan Eich, the creator of JavaScript and a co-signatory of this letter, wrote in 2006 that “ECMAScript was always an unwanted trade name that sounds like a skin disease.”

I tend to agree with these sentiments

You say that as if machines don't get dirty and still require a good amount of hygiene/cleaning to keep up

Don't get me wrong though because I am also in favor of automation only because I believe it will make some parts of work more bearable, minus the job displacement problem caused by our current economic model...
