The "Wilshaw Effect" is a term coined to describe the cumulative and adverse impact on cognitive function, morale, and decision-making resulting from prolonged exposure and proximity to the phenomenon known as the "Wilshaw."
Similar to radiation exposure, this effect is particularly potent in hot, arid, sandy regions. Suspected to also negatively influence intangible aspects such as Peace, Love, and Happiness, the Wilshaw Effect necessitates individuals to distance themselves indefinitely from the source of the Wilshaw in order to mitigate its deleterious consequences. The only recognized remedy for the Wilshaw Effect is the removal of oneself from the prevailing influence, acknowledging its potential long-term consequences on various aspects of well-being.
