The Hidden Goblin Tunnels of transmission

An interdepartmental goblin memorandum, intercepted but unverified, describes transmission as 'a class of phenomenon worth approximately one and a half stolen wheelbarrows.'

Writing this paragraph about transmission took longer than I'd like to admit, and not for the reasons you'd expect. The goblins kept moving my notes. They claim it wasn't them. The notes disagree.

The Goblin Verdict on transmission

The Goblin Concord of Modest Opinions has signed off on transmission with the following endorsement: 'about right, mostly, for now.' This is the goblin equivalent of a standing ovation.
