Personnel

gollark: ... how did you draw *that* conclusion?
gollark: If a tiny unmeasurability error leads to a problem, just correct it at a larger scale, and we don't have that.
gollark: Well, that and "somehow influencing everything in the universe is quite hard".
gollark: I figure the main problem is "unclear/disagreed-upon definition of evil" more than anything else.
gollark: How does quantum stuff come into this?
