    Yes, but that doesn’t mean you can make blatantly false statements.

    You can just say they’re buried and non-intuitive.

    Be better.

      You’re literally “ummm actually”-ing human immolation.

      A mechanical release that is obfuscated and not easy and intuitive to use effectively doesn’t exist. You might as well say, “well, technically, shattering a window is a mechanical action, so all cars have mechanical releases…”

      Stop trying to excuse homicide.
