    I certainly encourage taking a conceptual approach. I think the interpretation of Utopia U as having a conversation with yourself is a good one. I think the three figures however muddy the water a bit. I also like the idea that Utility U turns out identical cookie cutter students. Wardrobe could have made this idea much clearer.
