    And so since its in the past and a different person, person 2 shouldnt feel like they caused what person 1 did.

    that’s how linear time works. an event in the present or future cannot cause an event in the past

      Yes but step 2 can cause step 3 can’t it? If it were a single transaction that would work but its not. Companies dont open up a limited run and then shutdown immediately. They continue on until you break your relationship with them.
