conversations in our house go like this

(Much re-arrangement of dishwasher.)
"What are you doing in there?"
"Optimizing."
"Oh, I thought you were just trying to make things fit."
"That's easy, but then everything wouldn't get clean."
"Then what you are doing is not 'optimizing'. Optimizing means taking something that works and making it better (technically, as good as it can be). Making it 'not broken' is not the same thing."

"I should run it on pot-scrubber mode."
"There are no pots in there."
"And when it's done there will be no dirty pots."

Not said by either of us, but it would fit:

"I don't suffer from overthinking, I enjoy it. Depending on how you define enjoy. And overthinking." (source)

Technically correct! The best kind of correct!
