The second paragraph, is that stolen from somewhere, or did you make it up? That made me understand the concept entirely. It made it blatant to what "friends of friends" are, and what drawbacks there are to entangling too many classes (joints). A+ quote.

@diemaus If I stole that shield paragraph from somewhere it's source has since leaked out of my head. At the time my brain just thought it was being clever. What I do remember is that I added it after much of the upvotes so it's nice to see it validated. Glad it helped.
