[SPOILER] Click here to see my commentary for this page!
My comment for this page from Gaia: sic mundus creatus est:Alissa is referencing the 80/20 rule in software engineering. It says that 80% of a certain piece of software can be written in 20% of the total allocated time, and the remaining 20% of the code takes 80% of the time.

Take heed of the 80/20 rule, procrastinators. That same rule also applies to homework and research papers. The bulk of the work seems to always be easy to knock out fast, but the refinements, proofreading, citations, and double checks will always take longer than expected.
The 80/20 rule is also known as the Pareto principle, and can apply to a lot of other things too. For example, let’s say that ~80% of land is owned by ~20% of the population, or ~80% of a company’s revenue comes from ~20% of their clients.
In my experience, the first 20% of a project takes 80% of the time, and the remaining 80% of the project takes another 150% of the time. If you’re lucky.
Well, she not wrong about that last part.
Lillith blew up the Redstream. That’s like saying that someone blew up the physics-constant of radio waves. There’s no clue if it was temporary or permanent, and Novil’s Notes complained that people were jumping to the conclusion of a Greenstream!
Lillith repairing a soul sounds like it would so some stitching, double the intelligence, and cause a desire to read books. Normal, natural stuff. 🙂
Baal created the Redstream to use against Gaia’s forces. If it can be created, it can be destroyed, and it’s hardly going to grow back on its own. I imagine if spells are software, the Redstream was an OS, not some physical constant – but what physical constants even mean with magic in the world?
