I guess there’s also the line between when is something a historical artifact as opposed to just a text with information. Nowadays we digitize everything, and have copies of copies of stuff. In the 19th century they could definitely mass produce books, but still a book was where legitimate data was stored. If you find that an old text is fading or otherwise is seen as needing clarity, it might not be seen as very crazy to just update your stuff.

Not that I like it. But I wonder how different the perspective was of the guy who did it

It’s actually kinda the opposite. One of the things that gives humans a massive advantage is our ability to stay cool during long intense bouts of exercise. This is why we have no fur.

And then of course if our lack of fur becomes an issue, we can use our big brains to make something to cover up with

See, the point is that fur isn’t clothes, it’s part of the body. So shaving the cat would essentially be cheating to get certain results

“Haha fuck you cat! Look at how uncomfortable you are after we removed a part of your body!”
