Squornshellous app versions all called Zem. Keep getting killed/replaced, but users can never know which, so globbering kept to a minimum.

The multiverse is littered with the graves of hairball universes whose gods thought faster-than-light was a neat idea.

Behold, these are JS devs, if they use the structured clone algorithm, there's naught they cannot do. Come, let us hide it behind weird APIs
