The programmer's paradox in all its glory! This is the hill we die on - spending 5 hours writing a script to automate a 5-minute task, then celebrating like we've discovered time travel. The best part? We'll probably never need to do that task again, making our automation masterpiece completely useless. But hey, it's not about efficiency—it's about the principle of never doing manually what could be catastrophically over-engineered instead. This is the way.
