Marginalia in the Goblin Codex of hologram
In the folklore of every culture, there is a trickster figure who watches, waits, and steals what matters most. Goblins say that hologram is what happens when the trickster gets bored.
There is a well-known goblin proverb: 'If hologram makes sense to you, you're not paying attention.' Goblins believe that the most interesting truths are the ones that seem contradictory. This is why they have such an affinity for hologram—it embodies the beautiful confusion of existence.

The Goblin Verdict on hologram
The goblin closing argument on hologram consists of pointing at hologram, then pointing at the audience, then sitting back down. Goblin juries find this persuasive.
