On the boat, it was quite conceivable to build a ramp or something to bypass the slippery log (we didn’t do it because it wasn’t a good use of time, similar to how you probably wouldn’t build a linux shell script to address a problem with a particular application that you planned to upgrade in another couple days or something).
Steampunk still tries to abstract away things, the abstractions just involve physical things.
