    I’ve never met the man, and have done little to no business with him, but in my experience if you do a lot of work some people are going to complain about it, and only the pissiest of them would go out of their way to inscribe a tablet about it. Nobody is putting that effort into “went fine, no complaints.”

    Ea-nāṣir’s reputation may be the earliest victim of survivorship bias.

      He had multiple complaint tablets in his possession. Why did he save them? They take up a lot of space!
