Southerner here. It's this kind of carte blanche thinking that had left the liberals and progressives of the South fighting an uphill battle. When the major party most aligned with our values throws up their hands and withdraws all support, we are left only with our metropolitan counties trying to lead by example, however flawed we may be. I want to help my rural statesmen get the help they need so that they're above water long enough to realize the true opponent, the 1% aka the new age plantation owners. But when we only have 2-3 counties per state trying to stem the tide while weathering the onerous rulings of a gerrymandered state legislator, it's slow going. I almost left once, but that's accepting defeat. I'm not leaving this country if we take a significant rightward turn, because I'll lose any ability to right the ship. Same goes for the South.

From a Blueberry in a Raspberry pie, with love.

This adds additional nuance, and I like the idea. Thank you for taking my question seriously.

What about differently sized apartments with different amenities? Sounds like this would force standardization and a race to the bottom on minimal amenities.

It's a risky seach if you're squeamish, but Harlequin disease is skin mutation(?) that leads to babies being born with cracked skin and puffy red eyes. The cracks somewhat evoke the patterning of Harlequin's motley attire.
