Too far down the rabbit hole....

Kea: "Sierra........ What are you doing?"
Sierra: "Learning about platoons"
Kea: "Why?"
S: "So we can put them in our tool"
K: "Why?"
S: "So we can have a greater level of granularity"
K: "Why?"
S: "Because our customer wants it"
K: "Why?"
S: "Because her boss asked her"
**NB: AFTER THIS POINT, EVERYTHING IS SPECULATIVE AND DELIBERATELY UNLIKELY. DO NOT TAKE THIS AS EITHER FACT, OR SOMETHING I REMOTELY BELIEVE ABOUT OUR CLIENT OR HER ORGANIZATION"
K: "Why?"
S: "Because he thought of it on a whim and decided it was a good choice"
K: "Why?"
S: "Alcoholism"
K: "Why?"
S: "Well... He's Catholic you see, and he's trying to repress some memories from when he was an altar boy...."
K: "Why?"
S: "Because the Catholic church doesn't let priests marry"
K: "Why?"
S: "Because they're supposed to focus on their religion, which they can't do if they're concerned about marriage consummation"
K: "Why?"
S: "Because intercourse is distracting."
