There once were some people who worked at a marina. They would
take a sail and a hull and put them together to make a sailboat and sail around
the marina and out onto the sea. Sometimes this worked well and sometimes it
worked poorly. Sometimes the people cherished the sailboats and sometimes they
were reckless. Sometimes a sailboat might have a tear in the sail or perhaps a
warp in the keel of the hull in a way that the people could not repair, and to much
sorrow, that sailboat could not sail out onto the sea. But the people continued
to combine a sail and a hull to make a sailboat.
Then one day it was decided that two sails make a sailboat
and that two hulls make a sailboat. What should we make of this?
