They are artefacts of our individualist cultural frame.

So, they are the public face of the team that went the last mile, therefore they deserve a big ceremony? Many peoplem were involved up to this point. Where are they? And I mean a _lot_ of people. People cooked the food they ate even. Not to mention the people who toiled silently to get to the last mile.

IDK it all feels like a farce to me.
