> but that's a band-aid solution to cataract surgery

Ok. so then the world is a better place because instead of having zero solutions, there is instead an imperfect solution.

Glad you agree that this is still massively a good thing.

> why don't you ask "why do so many people all across the world lack clean water?"

Then other people should feel free to go do something to fix that, instead of attacking other people who are fixing it in their own way.

> it is because some fuckin YouTuber pony's up the cash and suddenly there's a goddamn well.

Yep. There is a well. That is measurably helping people. And the world is a significantly better place with that well than without it.
