Yeah when I was writing this part of me kept saying “but humming is so cheap, why shouldn’t everyone do it all the time?”, and I had to remind myself that attention is a cost. This is despite the fact that it’s not cheap for me (due to trigeminal neuralgia; I’ll probably stick with enovid myslf) and attention is a limiting reagent for me. The too-cheap-to-meter argument is really seductive.
