The propensity to forget about the end goal one wants to achieve, and to pursue instead the means or mediums to that end goal.
A medium—for example, points or money—is a token people receive as the immediate reward of their effort. It has no value in and of itself, but it can be traded for a desired outcome. Experiments demonstrate that, when people are faced with options entailing different outcomes, the presence of a medium can alter what option they choose. This effect occurs because the medium presents an illusion of advantage to an otherwise not so advantageous option, an illusion of certainty to an otherwise uncertain option, or an illusion of linearity to an otherwise concave
effort-outcome return relationship. This work has implications for how points influence consumer choice and how money influences human behavior.
Money by itself is worthless because it is just paper and metal - medium maximization is the reason you want it.

Twenty second of the February, of the year 2022. It's also a palindrome.
It's an only date with full twos that you're going to witness in your life. Next one will be in 200 years, from then you have 18 thousand years or 20 thousand years for it to happen, a maximal two day.
Hey man! I will never see a maximal two day again because of you, that's why I'm going to take a number two on your car.

Hym "I believe trans people have a right to make a maximally informed decision regarding transitioning. So if they haven't been adequately informed of risks (such as dumping estrogen into someone that was assigned male at birth can increase the risk of prostate cancer and/or any other SEX exclusive health problems regardless of GENDER), their doctor and the people promoting trans rights are doing them a disservice. There is a difference between defending trans rights and curating information to trick people into being nicer to trannies."
