We also approached (with different authorships) this matter in more technical terms elsewhere (Crȃciun et al 2020;Orosz et al 2020). Here, we will use an example to illustrate its stakes: a boy is raised in a family in which the father earns enough to pay not only for the basic needs, but also for private classes.…”
