Imagine there is a safe in your house. You ask your butler to update your documents that are inside the safe, but you forgot that the butler doesn’t have the key. Instead of asking you for the key, the butler builds a dollhouse, puts a tiny safe inside the dollhouse, and then does some magic to bind the fates of the dollhouse safe and the real safe together. The butler then opens the dollhouse safe using the dollhouse key, and updates the tiny dollhouse documents, which causes the real documents in the real safe to update as well. This causes you great consternation.
