I watch this Zoe bee video a little over a month ago. Talking about how we use metaphors to grasp abstract concepts, how we use it in our daily life and how we use as map, in our politics and so on. Something imo she didn’t focus enough is the metaphor we forget were ever metaphors(fun fact: the word “metaphor” has the world “meta”). This use one here, its like the three fishes with water. You see it so much you forgot it ever existed.
Flagship. The flagship is the ship that leads the fleet, but people use it to describe quality. When Nothing launched their first phone, it was a flagship because it was their only ship, but people argued it wasn’t a flagship because it didn’t use Qualcomm’s flagship chipset. People continue to refer to all of Apple’s newest numbered iPhone models as flagships, and recently looped the 16e into that group, but the Pro line is obviously the flagship line. The other models are other ships in the fleet.
