Undervalued labor in media

I have been enjoying the hell out of Dr. Stone (anime), which I first watched during Covid lockdowns and am re/new watching with my anime group. As well, I enjoy "dude/dudette goes back in time, brings modern-ish tech to speedrun folks out of the middle ages" fiction. It's fun escapism and I really enjoy seeing the takes that different authors have on what they would introduce and how they would try to change history. I've talked about this before but there's one thing that these fictions keep doing wrong and today I'm going to talk about that.
