The document discusses the debate around whether the new Suez Canal project in Egypt is a truly new canal or just a bifurcation. It argues that regardless of what it is called, the project provides value by allowing ships to navigate in both directions simultaneously instead of separately, reducing waiting times in the bitter lakes. This allows more ships to pass through the canal each day, increasing the fees collected. Even if it is just a small bifurcation, it generates more money, which is the only thing that really matters. The document concludes that small improvements can have significant impacts, like renewing a broken button that controls an important function.
