Real story
Split screen. Left: a brain surgeon standing over a patient with bare hands, looking helpless. Right: the same surgeon with scalpels, clamps, and sutures laid out on a tray. Same person. Completely different capability. Operating room, bright surgical lights.

Same surgeon. Same brain. One can operate. One can't.

A neurosurgeon with 20 years of experience stands over a patient. No scalpel. No clamps. No sutures. She knows exactly where to cut. She knows the procedure cold. She has performed it 400 times.

But without instruments, she can't make a single incision. All that knowledge, completely useless.

Claude without tools is that surgeon. Brilliant. Helpless.
