At least in my case my widow will have worked her whole life, and been more successful than a lot of men.
Yes Apoppin does the gaming community (and hardware companies) a solid by slaving away on his benchmarks, but if either values it, they should be the ones to buy Apoppin's HMO. To most of the people paying for Apoppin's HMO, his benchmarks are probably even less meaningful than the guy who chooses to wash the park rocks with a toothbrush. The vast majority of people just don't care about benchmarks.
You can find pretty smoothed stones known as "agates" on the shore of Lake Superior, which can in turn be sold. If I quit my job today, start spending my days picking up shiny rocks and selling them, should society be forced to buy my HMO? Where is the justice in that?
