Making a kid probably takes a year (<3 months to try and conceive, 9 months for pregnancy) or so, unless you have issues with fertility. Adoption can take, like, a decade, assuming that you are considered a suitable adoptive parent in the first place. (I'm pretty sure that many places discriminate against disabled people here, and almost everywhere you have to be married.)
I mean, building a moat does tell that you probably are rich enough to either pay someone to come over and do all that, or buy/rent a machine to dig & fill it, or are well-off that you have enough free time & energy to dig it without a machine... (might also need something to line the moat with so that the water isn't just sucked up by the soil)
On the other hand, if someone dug up a moat around a whole house with a shovel all by themselves, it'd probably be wiser not to mess with them...
This reminds me of how when I first learned about bottom surgery at 5 or so, I thought that you'd get someone who wants a penis and someone who wants a vulva, cut off their genitalia and then just swap it. Another thing is that I thought surgeons used scissors, not scalpels, to cut into their patients.
Well, a car falling from the sky (car crash or ran out of gas) probably wouldn't be very safe either. I'm absolutely not trusting the average nitwit who pays more attention to Instagram than to the road to operate something akin to a mini-plane.
Maybe it doesn't represent the public opinion, but it still does show that there are plenty of dickheads out there somewhere. And sometimes those dickheads find their way into governments and positions where they turn more people into dickheads.
Probably mutilating the parts that make dogs able to make sounds.
