Not even. It wasn't the same hand that wrote those letters.
Maybe a server wrote it after the fact, or maybe the client did to get story and a free dinner.

There is no justice in punishing people who’ve become addicted, and are just using to satisfy the addiction.
You know who becomes addicted? The kid who runs/drives/rides in front of a car and ends up on major pain meds. Maybe ticketing parents who let their kids do that, without regard for the evidence of its dangers is a good idea after all.
Any product created by a company that has demonstrated evil intent should be considered evil, even if there are legitimate valid uses. You have to trust not only the person using it, but also the company that controls what the device can/will do with or without the users constent.
My theory is it was an extension of the fish eye lenses use in music videos. Back then they were pretty ubiquitous and carried a certain’We’re bad-ass’ connotation, and for a music album cover, this was the type of one frame that could capture the essence of that.
This will need management and legislation to not turn the world into bad place.
I think this is the key piece. Management and Legislative bodies don’t currently care one whit about people. They only care about money and power so dystopia really seems like the path we’re on.
It will take a massive shift or some major cataclysmic revolutions to change that path.
So… you write it down to forget it. Seems effective to remove distractions. Less effective to actually remember it, if it’s actually important.
Long term, it’s not going to create a two tier system. It’s going to drain limited resources from the public system until it fails, and then all we have left is profit driven healthcare that provides worse care than what we were getting for everyone except the richest.
The problem the becomes are the bad or missed calls because they are human, or because the fix is in? That same worry happens with VAR. But it’s reviewable and so bad calls are more easily noticed, and identifying trends is easier.
Publishing the post sure.
But propagating notification alerts to followers isn’t reliably that fast.
Having a paid queue to be alerted first makes sense technically.
Huge ethical issues though. This is clearly just corruption. Pay me money and you’ll get insider trading information that won’t actually be called that.
Our system is not set up for anything other than to make the richest people richer, by exploiting the labour of the rest of the people.
Our real system, the closed system known as planet Earth is not set up for endless growth of a human economy. All populations go through growth and crash cycles. The longer we push off the decline, the harder the crash will be.

That's a well crafted PR response that does it's best to accept responsibility and give a plausible explanation, which is what's expected. Doesn't mean its true.
It doesn't really fit well with what's in the image to my eyes though.
Maybe a second person saw the ticket, thought someone missed a word and added it, but that doesn't make sense at a high end place to have just anybody doing lettering.
Looking at that 'Happy Birthday' on a plate and thinking something needed to be added, I would not want to touch that perfect cursive even if I had similarly impressive flow, I can't imagine the different shape wouldn't be acceptable at a place like that.
