You know those big shipping containers they use on container ships and the trailers of semis?
The QUIK HOUSE is a prefabricated kit house designed by Adam Kalkin from recycled shipping containers. It has three bedrooms and two and one-half baths in its 2,000 square foot plan. The basic kit costs $76,000 plus shipping. The shell assembles by the end of the week, you will have a fully enclosed building. From start to finish, it should take no longer than three months to complete your house.

In case your bafflement included me, I never claimed that studying it baffles me. Talking about it as a discovery does. Also note that I wondered about the discrepancy between the paper itself and the article on it, hoping that the paper had a spin that the article lacked.
Oh. Okay.

One hippo all alone calls two hippos on the phone. Three hippos at the door bring along another four. Five hippos come overdressed, six hippos show up with a guest. Seven hippos arrive in a sack. Eight hippos sneak in the back. Nine hippos come to work.
ALL THE HIPPOS GO BERSERK!!!
All through the hippo night, hippos play with great delight. But at the hippo break of day, the hippos all must go away.

I'ma gonna pop psychologize Baba and say that public breastfeeding makes her uncomfortable because she is harbouring guilty feelings about not being able to nurse her daughter because said daughter is adopted.
