It was a lot of people's jobs for months now creating some special bottle and box for this PR moment... none of this should exist. It reminds me of stories about the Middle Ages, where people would come before the king and shower them with gifts to make sure they are appeased.

It's not even a good box. Kings are rolling in their graves, truly the worst timeline on many fronts.
