As we all know, thisThing is on first, THISTHING is on second, and
ThisThing is on third. Obviously thisThing can't play first and second
at the same time, so THISTHING has to be on second as we need ThisThing
on third and whatThing only know how to play short.

I don't know why you said thisThing and THISTHING are entirely
different things. thisThing is on first. THISTHING is on second.
entirely different things is in center and we only got one of him.
