You should read the book.
(And no, I'm not kidding!)
I really enjoyed the history of the pencil, interesting history of a banal object.
Actually No. 2 just describes the hardness, and nothing else. But pencils have been evolving a lot over the years. For an interesting (but a little dry) history you can read the book "The Pencil." BTW I didn't downvote you!
> This is also probably the most boring aspect of eunuchs to me to be honest! It's like you study the history of steamships and everyone asks what iron they used.
There are people out there who would actually find the topic of your metaphor absolutely fascinating! That simple topic could provide a rich history of engineering, business, and politics. These books on the pencil and salt are just two examples of this.
