I think it would be lazy to abstain from the barest of effort, yes.

Well I think the original comic achieves more than the barest effort then. We have the setup (why seatbelt on plane?), the vaguely dark-humoured explanation, the absurdist 'oh ok that makes sense' as the punchline (where, y' know, a lot of the humour is because so many people identify with that 'i don't care if the truth is dark I just want to know' idea). Anyway. Not lazy.

Wow, achieves more than the barest effort, I'm glad this comic has come so far.
