He didn't claim there wasn't a problem, just gave practical advice for making the most of the unfair situation

Even more practical advice: 'use Libgen'.

I somehow misread that as 'use Lojban' and was momentarily both confused and delighted :\

It's unfortunate that you are now clear-headed and disappointed.

Indeed,"Lojban" and "practical" in the same sentence is not something you see every day.

And also all the other resources the university library offers. Especially in summer months, uni libraries are amazing and massively under-used resources. Working/learning is a public library is usually a drag, but uni libraries are awesome.

I used to live a couple blocks from a uni library, and I practically lived there. In the summers I drove straight there from work, got lost in the stacks learning about random things, and only left when it closed.

Fortunately that library was completely free to the public, but if it weren't I would have happily paid $100/mo during the summer months for access (Probably saved that much just in utilities anyways.)
