It was just rather strange to me to hear the item in question  
described in a way as to suggest it was its primary purpose. It's a  
little like hearing a chef's knife described as a can opener. Yes, you  
can do that, but...

"Most men worry about their own bellies, and other people's souls,  
when we all ought to worry about our own souls, and other people's  
bellies."
