Traffic patterns are like code, each lane is a loop and every car is a variable that keeps updating. If you add a heuristic that pushes the flow like a well‑ordered stack you could cut out a lot of bottlenecks. But traffic is still a rogue thread that steals locks and never stops thinking of itself as the boss. Still, if you treat the whole system as a single monolith of logic you might be able to smooth the rush hour with a priority queue. Just don’t rewrite the whole API because you’re mad about the delay.

Sure thing, I'll keep the cars quiet unless they start demanding a debug session, and if they do, I'll write them an error message that only a 3 GHz mind can understand.
