Everyone knows creation takes longer than destruction, but interestingly maintenance and repair as systematic tendencies take longer than creation. Not in a per-instance/marginal cost sense but in terms of the knowledge/skill/infrastructure needed for a repair culture.

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.

Plus social and economics costs of landfill usage are lower than many expect. Planned obsoletion, and trash and replace economies have marginal benefits

Money is magical. And like all magic, deludes people into thinking it can do everything and they understand the price.
