I noticed a degree of redundancy in the usage of the metaphor "idle", which might be something we can eliminate.

In the attached screenshot i marked all instances and synonyms of "idle".

There is rationale for what "idle" really is, as far as i know it, and i can't help myself but suspect that it has something to do with human Presence.

please share your opinions freely!
