It's not the depth of the rabbit hole that bugs me... It's all the rabbit poop you stumble over on your way down...

I would say you need to know enough you do understand it. One word in an ancient text translated wrong can make a difference in the message.

Αν ανάμεσα σ’ όλον τον κόσμο,
νιώθεις πως δεν υπάρχουνε λύσεις,
τότε μόνο δυο μάτια μπορούνε,
να σε κάνουν να θέλεις να ζήσεις.

It goes over the top. Anything else is unsanitary and wrong.
And the egg came first because all chickens, by definition come from eggs.

The dinosaur came before the chicken, or the egg.
