Indeed :-) but just like modern nature lovers will tell you all about it on their cell-phone, there are some artifices he just won't count as being artificial...
Plus, the Machines just dropped a love interest straight on him...
Last evening, after a TV news piece about breast implants:
My aunt: “I don't like that. A woman should accept her own body.” Me: “That isn't your natural hair colour, is it? So, should a woman accept her breast but not her hair?”
True, but you must remember that it is HER adventure. She is the one who hit the "pause" button. Did he have the ability to say "No"? Was there a "pause" button that he could have hit before she did?
He wasn't in an adventure - but when a nice opportunity to make someone happy came along at low price, the Machines wouldn't sneeze on it, I'd imagine...
Well, yes, he could have turned up the safety level; presumably, he could have done so at that moment, if he wanted to.
He chose not to.
