I'd assume this is why players overdramatize collisions.
Can I request you do the same thing but with regular shots in game? I'm just going to predict PKs are more effective
Edit, not saying this to be critical of the sport!

Sorry, I guess I should preface all this by saying in most kitchens an order of 6 "wings" = 3 wings/3 legs and 12 "wings" = 6 wings/6 legs

Technically 1.5 chickens per 6 wings, assuming you get 2 wings/legs from 1 chicken.
If someone orders 12 wings of all legs or wings, that is 6 chickens minimum right there
Also these are minimums, odds are every part you eat is a different chicken

I'm surprised that ratio isn't higher... I used to cook chicken wings/legs by box.
I don't know when it's appropriate for chickens to go to slaughter. I'd imagine many are raised solely for breeding while the rest are purely for consumption 🤷♂️

I used to work at a sports bar. The number of wings I've made would probably disgust most people.
If you eat 6 wings, at least 2 chickens had to be slaughtered for you. The numbers get skewed when you wonder if 2 wings/legs came from the same chicken, or if 6 chickens needed to be slaughtered for 1 part each to make your meal.

I don't really understand how places can just not give feedback/answers/decisions during this process. I once applied for a job that I got a rejection letter from 2 months later. I appreciate they sent it at all, but kind of assumed the rejection when I didn't hear from them in a timely manner.

Does "ghosted" mean they set up an interview and then never went through with it?

Totally fair! I just think people tend to glorify the American work force and don't really understand how most of that labor is treated.
I've worked in the food service industry for just over 15 years from washing dishes to managing the grocery department of a $1mil/week store and it's pretty shitty all around despite doing pretty well for myself.
Just my experience/opinion!

I am fortunate enough to be able to afford to pay borderline slave labor workers to cook shitty burgers they can barely afford themselves

On the contrary side... imagine how cheap your burgers would be if we used slave labor techniques... instead I need to make some $7/hr worker make me a $15 McDonald's meal that would cost them 2 hrs of work to purchase themselves.
I'm not at all saying you're wrong. But slave labor is justtttttttt about everywhere, even if they call it things like 'minimum wage'.
Read up (if you haven't already) on the early Banana Republic and how those people were treated just for the US to get bananas.
This applies to all global industries... someone is getting exploited for someone else's benefit.

Even in the US we have minimum wage which just translates to the lowest wage possibly paid by an employer before it's slave labor. And when you have someone working 3 of those jobs to make rent/buy food... isn't it basically slave labor anyways? Maybe indentured servitude is a better term.

That's what I mean- it seems like getting a PK provides a huge bonus for that team, especially if all PKs have an 80% scoring average.
