Netflix does those worse than a 3rd party “recommend me similar movies” or even just IMDb lists.
I guess if you think it recommending you “MegaShark vs. Giant Octopus Cat”… because you liked Jaws is helpful? I think personally it is not.

I just went under the hood in Plex and changed all the app icons and names to Netflix and my dumb family has no clue still.
Just fool the normal people into a better UX.

No they cannot. And I am not just speaking in abstract terms, in the 1960s and 1970s (and even before) many shows were made that had a moral core but did not moralize at the audience.
Shows like Star Trek, The Outer Limits, Twilight Zone, etc. which would question or discuss complex ideas without turning them into soap operas or basic dramas.
The only shows that I can think of like that now are Black Mirror or perhaps your odd HBO offering, but those are not shining examples, and often, even if they do discuss or engage with deeper concepts or ideas, it’s not handled in a way that allows for nuance. (Black Mirror is happy to be quite crass at moments, same with HBO and other “top-tier” shows.)

“ living in the Golden era.”
If you actually lived in a Golden Era entertainment would be free, quality, and meant to enrich the people instead of advertise and moralize to them.
I really don’t understand how a DVD collection is an “essential service” either. Or why you would effectively choose not to look at your watching statistics and then simply buy the media you watch the most.

Why not just buy what you like?

About what in particular?
It seems you’re making a https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchy_(mathematics) which isn’t dimensional in any nature. It’s like saying that hacker news is a “2d forum”…
Anyway ordering it more like https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_set
Just seems natural to me. Information typically isn’t hierarchal outside of artificial structures.

I’d be interested to see this expressed as a Lie (pronounced “Lee”) Algebra personally.

Could you give some examples in context of how this works? I’m interested in understanding the concept!
That is right. Is saying it in big words somehow more confusing for you?
Basically Jacobi identity would be about things like disambiguations on Wikipedia so again… are you just intimidated by words you don’t know or something? That makes me sad for you.
