Notes on the Bag of Bags

A Four-Kind Taxonomy Behind the University's Courier-Satchel Reorder Threshold

A research poster from the School of Emergent Priorities sorts the plastic bags hoarded under the kitchen sink into a four-kind taxonomy — structural, sentimental, aspirational, and terminal — and finds the University's procurement office reading the sampled terminal-kind share as a live signal for its own courier-satchel reorder threshold, which has revised upward at every review to date.
