There are many levels and manners of imperfection,  imperfection does not negate
superiority. Linux is imperfect, but clearly superior in many/most regards to
several other platforms (I won't name names).   And any good mythologist would
argue that it is the myths bieng in the hands of imperfect beings that causes
imperfections in the myths themselves,  and they do not neccesarily reflect
imperfections in the object(s) of the myth itself.

But it might explain why there are configuration files with horrible names like
pg_hba.conf.  What the *&^#*@ does that stand for?  Supposedly it is "PostgreSQL
HOST ACCESS CONTROL FILE".  Huh?  Just something that has always irritated
me....
