I’m not sure, but I can tell you with some degree of certainty that a house made of sticks won’t stand up to a wolf at the door, no matter what the Fascists tell you about bundles of sticks being stronger.
Straw is even worse, unless it is mixed with mud to make bricks. Bricks… that’s where it’s at.
Carlill v Carbolic Smoke Ball Co., 1 QB 256 (1893) was my favorite case in law school.
The opinion established the common law principle of detrimental reliance*, but did not address the condition of the hands of the plaintiff (who was (and Teresa will be pleased to hear this) a woman).
* Or promissory estoppel. Or detrimental estoppel. Or something. I forget. It was a long time ago.
As we now know, thanks to modern science and the use of observation and statistical analysis to establish a knowledge base, such hairiness is evidence of impure thoughts and actions.
Thus, there is legal precedence established by the use of science as witness, that one’s thoughts and actions, once established as being impure and without socially redeeming merits, may be held to account for one’s intent at the time of malpractice being suspected.

Simply allow the hairs on the arms to grow, only so that the hairs on the arms may also match with the hairs on the hands..

Love the picture today. One suspects there is a novel behind the looks on their faces.
