Well, the idea that the system needs to authorize a person to occupy a piece of space is both frightening and very funny. Like the idea that a person needs somebody else to tell him if he's healthy. My dog doesn't know any of that and he's fine. He doesn't know about noir, either. He never worries about anything. And of course, he's not into classification...
Best,
