This was way too helpful to be a bot . And yeah , those flavor zones are what I meant by regions . Islay , Highlands , etc . Thanks . <| sep |> This is a great analogy . In the real world , it ' s not just the mentally ill . Many people find that people who display emotion to be weak , that logical is the only way to be . In the show , Ford seems to assume that all emotion is bad , and wants to heal it . Despite people saying , the pain is all I have left , he still erases it . He says he spared his hosts of so much of what burdens humans emotions , so when he sees them being emotional or in pain , it bothers him . I think he sees it as a malfunction . Just like people in real life see people who they deem to be too emotional .
