This promotes impractical version pinning. That leads to spoilage unless the lockfiles are updated every few hours. Freshness should be checked at build time, and the resolved version for each ingredient recorded in the SBOM but a lockfile SHOULD NOT be used for perishable ingredients. Bacteria will result in Spoilage Vulnerabilities if versions are locked inappropriately.

What, you've never seen industrial strength sandwich production?

> AGPL (Affero General Pickle License): Same as GPL, but if you serve the sandwich over a network (delivery apps), you must also publish the recipe. This is why most restaurants avoid AGPL pickles.

I love a good APGL joke, and this one especially tickles me because I'm currently a delivery driver instead of a dev.

You forgot to accomodate for MCP. You don't expect us to build the sandwiches manually as if we were cavemen living in 2023 do you???

If The Princess Bride is to be believed, MCP stands for the "Mutton Context Protocol".

This is fantastic, now, after implementing SAP home edition at your house, you’ll be able to use the procurement module and leverage EDI to source the ingredients of your sandwich while maintaining full traceability according to the relevant ISO standards.

Some sandwich ingredients are known to be used both as standard toppings and as sauce components. To avoid ambiguity, condiments such as guacamole and relish (as well as ketchup) SHOULD define a stable API (Avocado and Pickle Interface).

Great fun but I will point out that Sandwich is a town in Kent (England, UK). The BoM for Sandwich will be rather more involved than for a sandwich (which will be multiple sub-assemblies of the whole).

etc etc, soz!
