Context
Stand Behind the Men Behind the Wire: the Concavity's deformed-birth mythology — the feral-infant lore Lenz retails (109/111) and Hal lists among outgrown monsters (155) — turns out to have a JOI documentary behind it, complete with state agencies who can't decide whether the thing is to be captured or propitiated, like a god. The synopsis's deadpan "crushed, gummed, or picked up and dropped" is the lore's whole register: infant behaviors at building scale.
