It's Its way of implementing an evolutionary ladder, making it easier for others to become more 'like' It..."
The data on the "college entrance examination" that Lu Ping'an saw originally contained over sixty common paths..... But in reality, that was the result of meticulous selection, standardization, newbie-friendliness, and generalization.
