Topic Battle

This comprehensive analysis reveals time as the marginally superior entity, prevailing in four of five criteria with scores that reflect its fundamental nature as the substrate upon which all experience unfolds. Time's victory, however, feels rather hollow, for time cannot wag its tail upon one's return home. Time does not rest its head upon one's lap during moments of sorrow. Time merely passes, indifferent to joy and suffering alike. The dog, whilst losing on technical measures, achieves something time cannot: it makes those limited moments genuinely worth having. Perhaps the wiser conclusion is that dogs represent humanity's most noble defiance against time's relentless march.
