I don't. I have a passion for clearing roadblocks and that means different things at different times. Sometimes that means automation.

I think you parsed that sentence in a different way than I intended. I think a legitimate handoff is part of building a tool for someone. We have people who run the gamut from rent-seeking to dropping the mic and walking away.
