Ok, fiction is made-up stuff, but I expect some guardrails. DNF
For me, that would actually be the only even remotely interesting element in that book. But then I love reading about things that don't exist - fantasy (imaginary worlds), science fiction (space travel, aliens), time travel and so on. Realism is boring.

But of course one man's bread and so on.
