That’s because you’re trying to achieve “optimal”, which is not a requirement if saving time is your concern.

mistakes actually have consequences

You can just copy someone else’s build on PCPartPicker. There are so many to choose from.

You have time to play video games but you don’t have time to build a PC? Doubt.

One Piece is best enjoyed as a manga. Reading it goes much faster and loses a bit of the anime character tropes.

I suspect every language does this to some extent. Some good examples from Japanese:

靴 = shoes 下 = under 靴下 = socks

手 = hand 紙 = paper 手紙 = letter

歯 = teeth 車 = wheel 歯車 = cog / gear

火 = fire 山 = mountain 火山 = volcano

Sadly (?) the Japanese compounds are often only compounds of the symbols, not the spoken words.
