And I know someone will say, what about when the technology gets better? Maybe one day they will be able to insert an expert system into your brain, one that goes, "Is this an appropriate situation to apprehend beauty? if so, enjoy it, else, ignore it." Would that be okay? Would that be the assisted maturity" you hear people talking about? No, it wouldn't. That wouldn't be maturity; it'd be letting an expert system make your decisions for you. Maturity means seeing the differences but realizing that they don't matter. There is no technological shortcut.
