If a thing breaks in 5 seconds, it might take 5 minutes and near-zero information to replace it (not counting transport/waiting): take broken thing to dumpster, order replacement online, unpack replacement when it arrives.

But even the simplest repair, like gluing 2 pieces together, assumes more time, knowledge, inventory (glue), and skill than creation (at your locus obviously, not the thing factory or glue factory)

In Hindu trinity, maintenance > destruction >> creation. Brahma (creator) is basically awol after creation, Siva (destroyer) is prominent, but Vishnu (preserver) dominates. I’d guess by temple count that Vishnu = 10x Siva = 1000x Brahma. I’ve never even been to a Brahma temple.

Interestingly symbolic that Vishnu has 10 avatars, a couple of which (Rama and Krishna) possibly each outnumber Siva by temple count. Could be interpreted as: maintenance and repair work manifest in a lot more varied ways.

There is in fact only 1 major temple to Brahma afaik. Creation is just sort of a one-shot deal. The rest is post-sales customer service aka Vishnu with many convenient service locations around the world. Due to high call volumes, wait times may be high. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brahma_Temple,_Pushkar …

Polytheism is the way to go for DIY types. You don’t want the generic customer service line. You want the direct line to the god in charge of L-Bracket Type C.

This is basic Brahma Vishnu Shiva. Always pay attention to Vishnu or your ass is going to get kicked.

Opens the door for “creative maintenance” or “maintenance destruction” by way of Schumpeter.
