    He is a total dick but he has a point that Eve has gotten into a bad habit of just doing whatever she wants without thinking about the consequences.

    Drought, Fire, Floods are all terrible disasters but natural disasters are part of the normal flow of nature.

        Instead of stopping a flood from taking out a town, maybe build the outside of the flood plane. Eve is only a High School Graduate at this point. She may have an inherent understanding of Chemistry and Physics but she needs to study Architecture, City Planning, Logistics, Farming, Geography, Metrology, Climate Science. Now we have seen that she can turn objects into Gold, meaning she could flood the market with precious metals and destabilize the Economy (which honestly isn’t very stable to begin with).

          Central banks already print money at will whenever it suits their purposes and destabilize the economy on a regular basis for it; the only change here is that normal people might actually benefit from Eve’s intervention.

      I hate it in the show because it stinks of a sort of status quo brainwashing. Like yeah, it’s not good to build stuff yourself if you don’t know anything about construction, but surely that’s a minor stumbling block, not a reason to never build for free ever again.
