It is hopefully not an obtuse point but allow me to explain it with a story;

Teenage girl has a beauty spot. Her parents tell her it's a princess spot. Boys think its cute. She's happy. Some mean bitches tell her it's ugly and probably skin cancer. Now it's a problem. Nothing in reality had changed of course. And that's how solutions looking for problems go about the world creating new problems. It's in their interest to.



Ah ok, I see. I did not understand you correctly and I fully agree with you. Thanks for clarifying.
