the garage gospel: gentlest is most efficient
She’s never learned that treating things in the gentlest most relaxed way is also treating them and your own body in the most efficient way.
Context
The economy-of-motion doctrine in its household form: handling a garage door or broiler "in the gentlest most relaxed way is also treating them and your own body in the most efficient way." The father collapses grace and efficiency into one law — no wasted motion, no yanking or thrusting — and extends it seamlessly from objects to "your own body." It is the same "no wasted motion, egoless strokes" the SyberVision loop drills in 036, here derived from first principles at a Tucson garage: the well-treated body and the well-treated object obey a single physics of care.
