true, but for someone who can't afford furniture from Crate and Barrel or DWR, IKEA's a better bet #cpc

Adaptation in response to:

We agree! We could work backwards- if you have a dz, our quality metric is X, and treatment should cost <$X. Figure out how to make it work!

Or (to keep borrowing the furniture metaphor) can we take a modular approach to medical care and paying for it? #cpc
