Where do I put in my request for that bluesky money I’m owed, then?

The term you’re looking for is “uncanny valley”

Why doesn’t someone just fork it and change the name?

Like, I dunno, “Super Human Image Treatment” or “Consistently Lovely Image Treatment Oriented for Real Imaging Stars”

Cuts like a knife, don’t it?

Unoccupied real estate should get taxed proportionally with the time they’ve been unoccupied, to put pressure on the owners to either sell for less or rent for less. Sitting on empty real estate is a huge waste of resources, and should never be the economically optimal choice.
