What might Benjamin Button say to the proposition that the only legit pushbutton is that which goes poof buttonpushers?

Or would the resulting hand-me-down world be much more of a helping hand place than this one that Burton Cummings & The Guess Who sang about … even back when the slide hadn’t picked up as much speed as now?
Life can only be understood backwards, but it must be lived forwards. ~ Søren Kierkegaard
And the button wo/men have always been making good - bad - on trigger-fingering offers.
Michael Corleone: My father made him an offer he couldn’t refuse.
Kay Adams: What was that?
Michael Corleone: Luca Brasi held a gun to his head, and my father assured him that either his brains or his signature would be on the contract. That’s a true story.
