Don't judge people hard, for many it does not matter which one
it is, I guess you admit these two are very close. (I don't know
actually which one it could be...) And as the rules of common
conversational dialect dictate, two things close to each other can
sometimes substitute each other. We make the difference only
when it matters, and in this case it does not. And your grandma
may not like to hear about "decay", "repairs" sounds much more
positive word. And being positive affects your health. And
you need to buy less pills, thus saving more money for this game.

Entropy as a matehematical concept could have been used in
the design of this game, if a part of the game dynamics have been
made adaptive. Adaptiveness has to be partial, so that
Man From Above can fiddle with parameters when needed.
