>The money that had been spent on that RAIDed NVMe storage, could have been much-better spent on just adding more RAM to the system.

It is organizationally costly to upgrade the human brain to increase RAM. Much cheaper to increase HDD storage through rote memorization and even more cheaper to access External storage on StackOverflow. That is where Verbosity helps, to signal when to stream certain Paradigms into your active memory, and keywords to use when searching for answers online.

A 4mb Language can't run on a 3mb brain, so the efficiency it offers at compressing your mental model is useless. But if you have a 1mb Language kernel that dynamically streams 1mb of Paradigms at a time, and then uses the last 1mb to work on the code, then you are capable of functioning.
