@TechConnectify I think there's a cultural component to it as well. The object is conceived within a cultural mindset, serving a particular purpose. I say cultural, because itches are defined by it, and how we scratch them is informed by that framework.

I wrote this a while back, and I think it's relevant here. https://jim.casablog.com/2019/04/15/technology-culture-and-knowledge-ownership/

...we consider how to design technology exported for use outside of whatever culture. It would also be important to consider the hidden biases and assumptions baked into a product whether it be software or a jet aircraft or software on a jet aircraft. No matter how much we try, exported invention and knowledge will always contain unexpected challenges to those that use it outside of its native context.

And honestly, that's an essential part of troubleshooting. It's the same challenge as "cultural competency." It doesn't mean you know everything about the culture, but rather that address your assumptions.
