Don't we leave basically a lawyer facing 10 times the exposure?

I mean, is that productivity?

Or it says after it's MDASH, is that fragility?

I'm delighted to hear that Cordwell allow lawyers to bill at higher rates.

I'm not sure that's a net good to humanity, but there it is.

Listen, I'm teasing you.

But it depends in a way shows up quite a lot in the report.

It depends on what a person does.

It depends on the tasks.

It depends on the company's choices.

It depends.

It's like it's a report we're all depending on and it depends.

And one of the things that struck me about the nuance that you brought to that was the

that it felt to me like it's a recipe for an economy-wide staircase implementation.

Rather than a smooth curve, the smooth exponential curves that I love so much, but more a lumpy, punctuated deployment because each step...

is dependent on a bunch of it depends issues that might relate to a firm or an industry or a sector or regulated jobs, protected jobs, powerful classes of work.

And if that's the case, some will hold out for longer.

It might shape the way that deployment actually happens.

Perhaps it's going to be

at the same time a bit slower than some people might imagine, but also, you know, jerkier as we kind of hit each part of the staircase.
