You expect those 250k lines to be comprehensible? In my experience they'll be an utter clusterfuck.

You can't fix the airplane if it turns out to be a boat with legs, 2 holes (worked around with 5 pumps) and 3.5 enormous ears tagged "wings".

I find the kind of absurd fever-dream images it conjures to be very entertaining. I try to put as many contradictory concepts into various generators to see what it comes up with.

Even worse is if they're completely plausible, but there's a very subtle logic bug in there that is super hard to spot because of just how plausible everything is.
