We could have had this if the writers weren’t cowards.
edit: this idea got turned into an actual comic, I’m still actively working on it.

“No problem” vs “you’re welcome”
Speaking of linguistics, there’s one particular linguistic tick that I think clearly separates Baby Boomers from Millennials: how we reply when someone says “thank you.”
You almost never hear a Millennial say “you’re welcome.” At least not when someone thanks them. It just isn’t done. Not because Millennials are ingrates lacking all manners, but because the polite response is “No problem.” Millennials only use “you’re welcome” sarcastically when they haven’t been thanked or when something has been taken from/done to them without their consent. It’s a phrase that’s used to point out someone else’s rudeness. A Millennial would typically be fairly uncomfortable saying “you’re welcome” as an acknowledgement of genuine thanks because the phrase is only ever used disingenuously.
Baby Boomers, however, get really miffed if someone says “no problem” in response to being thanked. From their perspective, saying “no problem” means that whatever they’re thanking someone for was in fact a problem, but the other person did it anyway as a personal favor. To them “You’re welcome” is the standard polite response.
“You’re welcome” means to Millennials what “no problem” means to Baby Boomers, and vice versa.The two phrases have converse meanings to the different age sets. I’m not sure exactly where this line gets drawn, but it’s somewhere in the middle of Gen X. This is a real pain in the ass if you work in customer service because everyone thinks that everyone else is being rude when they’re really being polite in their own language.

This is me being a little silly, but I think it would be genuinely hilarious if Kristoph was a criminal defense attorney who specialized in fraud cases. Most of the cases he takes on involve falsified documents, insurance claims, etc etc. That's why he hired Apollo-- eyesight like that is a boon when a lot of your job is pouring over documents looking for the most miniscule of errors. It's also why Phoenix trusted him so quickly-- of course the fraud specialist knows Phoenix is innocent, he's had to deal with this all the time! It isn't until years later that Phoenix realizes oh, the guy who pours over forgeries for a living might actually be, shocker, good at getting away with forgeries. He's mentally kicking himself about it even now
