Booking flights is one long lesson in www.deceptive.design. A special shout out to lastminute.com for their "Full Flex" pop-up after pressing book that adds ~30% of the price of the ticket and then tries to process the payment immediately. Only reason it didn't work was because of 2FA on my card. https://www.deceptive.design/

Charles Darwin, in his book "On the Origin of Species", used Lord Sebright as an example of a breeder who was very skilled at changing characteristics in a race. Incidentally, I learned just last month that there's a breed of chicken named after Sebright, which he bred into existence himself.
