It does not teach the creative process well.

Protesters Block Google Buses in San Francisco, Citing ‘Techsploitation’
Who owns the streets and neighborhoods of the high-tech capital? A simmering battle erupts over displacement, evictions and scooters.This is a political fight among businesses.
The health of the city as an entity above its component parts
must dominate.
Google will be denied private busses.
The scooter gang will not triumph.
The homeless will destroy cities and themselves if they are not managed.
I know of no acceptable management of homeless individuals.
That is a problem for legislatures.
