Unless something has changed, aren't most of the bed in a box mattresses are more like 2-3x that ($600-900)? [Ah I see the landscape has changed drastically in the past 4-5 years, tons of new companies, much cheaper options, you get a new mattress, you get a new mattress....]

edit* - why the downvotes? Quick cursory search shows many major brands are exactly that... Tuft and Needle, Leesa, Purple are all $600+

I disagree. And maybe my understanding of the phrase "dark side of the profession" is wrong. To me, it's not just the opposite. It's not a drawback or risk. There, I agree. Dying in a crash as an F1 driver isn't the dark side of the profession, it's a risk. If it existed, the dark side might be other drivers trying to cause crashes to win.

The dark side of something is the allowed or well known existence of a specific behavior, act, or issue. Someone dying in the OR because they insanguinated after being shot 15 times and cannot be saved isn't the dark side of the profession. People aren't dying all the time because surgeons are taking too many breaks, are trying wildly inappropriate procedures, or giving random drugs on a whim. That, if true, might be a dark side.

As someone who used to practice law, I can wholly say there is a dark side of the profession. Substance abuse and even criminal lawyers blurring the lines with their clients and their "enterprises," etc is a dark side.

Thank you. Understandable. It wasn't meant to be anything more than simply requesting. People are downvoting me like the people asking about pizza toppings... smh :(
