      I love this. Certain surgeries absolutely involve some amount of “plumbing”, e.g. connecting the blood vessels in a pig heart transplant (I think they even refer to it as plumbing, perhaps informally). And I think it’s very accurate to say that plumbers, electricians etc. are to houses as surgeons are to living creatures.
