    Ok, but … sometimes one just has to acknowledge that a banana isn’t an egg, you know?

          You misquoted:

          …one just has to acknowledge…

          Not really

          It makes sense to not have to acknowledge that something isn’t something else when it doesn’t even matter, because nobody claimed it to be that thing in the first place.

              I’ve never acknowledged that a banana isn’t an egg to be honest. I’ve never even thought about that, like ever.

            Ok, but… sometimes one just has to acknowledge that substitution is the expectation that one is another in part to a non-zero degree, you know?
