Big Macs are rubbish, though, as their relationship to food is categorial
and contingent, and precisely driven by considerations of profitability and
market manipulation rather than than considerations of gastronomy.
But the problem is a qualitative one, rather than a quantitative one. Given
accessibility (a question of degree, once publication of any sort has taken
place) the issue is of the quality of affective and judgmental response to
the work. Nothing else but those nodal points can maintain or disseminate
the life of the poem.
