Think superficially. Amy Wax resembles liberal America. Rational self-concept, not religious, high-grade schooling, etc. That's important. Take a moment to appreciate catching a glimpse of the normally-invisible Overton Window being nudged a bit further.

Think subversively. If Vox (or whomever) accurately reports any statements made by Wax, even if they are followed by predictable criticisms, then there is still some information transfer. Knowledge transfer is often less direct or temporally immediate than we imagine it to be.

Tipping point? Like when you almost fall down the stairs drunk, but then catch yourself.

Does dayenu mean enough in Hebrew? Is my intuition that the writer knows about 100 words of Hebrew correct?

Probably known from that Passover song about how even if Yahweh had restricted himself to smiting the Egyptians + loose change it would have been plenty.
