Obviously you don't understand what you are talking about.

You can't "get" anything that has not been written.

You have the freedom to walk the forest you perceive.  You have the
freedom to build the road that you want, in that forest.

If it is a puzzle to you, that is your own problem.  It is not a puzzle
because somebody would have cut a whole into pieces and scattered them
around.  It is a puzzle because nobody put it together yet.

Feel free to do so, doing others the service you want done.

> He owes it to others
