Part 2 reminded me of several years ago when I had to explain to someone that in a stock split just because they 'get' more shares doesn't mean they are more valuable in total. They couldn't get their head around the fact the individual value of each share decreased in proportion with the split.

It's ironic that a split may actually cause an increase in value due to Unit Bias though...

Why on Earth is China shutting down cities to disrupt manufacturing on one hand, building alliances with Saudi Arabia for refineries on the other and also calling for a probe into biological activities funded by USA in Ukraine?

Really crazy stuff that no one's questioning.
