Story:
Once upon a time, there was a man who saw others setting nets to catch birds. He observed that each captured bird only got its head stuck in one mesh of the net.
He thought to himself, 'If that's the case, why bother making an entire net?' So, he went home and cut long ropes into individual loops.
When others asked him what these loops were for, he just smiled without explaining, feeling proud of his 'one-hole insight.'
He then found a secluded place and set up these small loops, but to his disappointment, not a single bird was caught.
