 Bad Topological Choise = Bad Performance

Seatings works as Anti-Addresser.

Do not allow the student to get out without ask
others to stand up.

A (S - Ov)
Anti-addresser = Classroom Seating Lines
Subject = Student
Value = Power (Get out of the line)

 To do = To be

Seatings works as Anti-Addresser.

Generatig dysphoric values on the student

A (S + Ov)
Anti-addresser = Classroom Seating Lines
Subject = Student
Value = Feel trapped
