You typically see one or the other when you dig into these industries. The third thing you see, and I promise you, and people fight me on this, but I promise you, you see paper processes still. And it's 2024, I know you're gonna be like, Luke, you're out of your mind, I don't believe you. We still see at trade schools a bunch of paper processes in some of these areas.
