Yeah, I feel like what that insight "means" is in the eye of the beholder. It's definitely not great in the context of the original song either, but it's a bit less in-your-face.

I think these characterizations point very strongly toward nostalgic longing and away from the glorification of addiction or even that of drug use.

There's also an extra verse, which wasn't in the radio edit, that I think further supports what you're saying.

For what it's worth, that line is a sample from an Ultramagnetic MCs song.

Implementing this like Gmail would mean doing it server-side. Handling it in the client would be more error-prone, since your device would have to have a good connection in the future, and if it doesn't, handle retries and make sure never to double-post.

"Design language" is, without a doubt, a thing. It's a metaphor, and a pretty apt one. Curious to hear what you think of programming languages.
