Probably „only store that’s in my vicinity“ in rural areas vs. „if that bodega sucks, I go to another“. So one is a necessity which overcharges, the other a convenience which overcharges.
I recently wanted to introduce someone to our internal recruiters to a person with a long, uniqueish name. The recruiter was like: they did respond with „I’m not interested“. But the person was like: I’ve never got a mail.
Turned out the whatever tool our recruiter used spit out „[email protected]“ even though the person in question doesn’t own that email.
Totally agree on the DAG point of view, but I would argue that for different people you need different analogies/models to make it click. I would argue that pointing towards graph theory might help people that have a formal CS or maths education, but not necessarily folks that went through bootcamps, switched from design roles, have a biology background (e.g. bioinformatics) or do statistics (e.g. in medicine or psychology)
