A few more questions coming your way!

One: What does the average day look like for Lawrence? I'm curious.

Two: Is there any scientific curiosity in Selforge City? It seems like, since their overall goal is happiness, and they have largely achieved it through technology that solves their each and every problem, they wouldn't really have a need for curiosity -- which makes me wonder why they would go out and adventure and leave in the first place? Surely any place outside of Selforge City is a lot less fascinating and wonderful than the city itself, and even if they were in the mood to explore, couldn't they just simply hook up to VR or roam the city instead of leaving the biggest paradise in the universe?

In fact, I largely upon the same issue with the U.R.H. Since everything was so great and accounted for, I couldn't imagine why humans would be scientifically curious about anything, especially with an A.I. solving each and every scientific inquiry out there in a matter of seconds.

To make a kinda-sorta analogy, one of the variations of the Fermi Paradox states that aliens aren't out there because they had figured out time travel was difficult and simply didn't deem it worth it. Instead, they created massive star-computers called Matrioshka Brains, where they uploaded their minds and live in a virtual paradise where they could want or need for nothing.
