Also possible that there may have been multiple in the household if so many were printed and mailed out? Maybe they turned the real one in for the prize money and then kept a non-winning one in a scrap book? Memories over time are weird so they could've convinced themselves that they kept the real one

Thank you! I should've linked to it. The actual text does a much better job of answering OP than my attempt to summarize it.
Especially in the US, where both parties are globally "right" in both political and financial aspects, a lot of time claiming to be a centrist means that you like capitalism and bombing other countries but you support LGBT causes and are pro-choice. I think, online and especially on lemmy, that the vocal left-wing voices (correctly) see this still as aiding the right but being too cowardly to admit it.
This also ties back to the MLK quote about the 'white centrist' being the biggest obstacle to his movement, because they may say the right things and appear to be helpful but take no action for the movement. By staying centrist and trying to meet in the middle, would lend credibility to the voices on the other side.
Right, isn't that the point of the question? What old time things did we do for one reason (cloven hooves) that turned out to be right for completely different reasons (health and safety)

I don't know if they have an app, but it's worked fine in-browser for me.

Oh interesting! I didn't realize that. I work tangentially with pharma start ups and development and just assumed they were bought out. I've seen that happen enough times that it felt expected. Thanks for the clarification!
Maybe medical? Like, Bio-Ntech designed the COVID vaccine, Pfizer bought it and could wrap up the phase 3 trials and then scale production?
So, they didn't actually make the product better, but they probably made it viable sooner than if they hadn't bought it?
But that is kind of the normal process for the medical industry at this point..start ups developing new medicine and then shopping it to Big Pharma for buyouts or funding
Have you thought of trying to pick up another language? Started learning Spanish 4 years ago and now I can go on vacation and have conversations with locals. Also, I'm more interested in their local history because I can read it/listen to it in Spanish and practice the language at the same time.
