Dude, there is no such thing as an "objective" relationship when the money and power of elites are either in play or on the line (at risk) these days.
A rare case of agreement! Objective? No! Punitive? Maybe. The means of production are not the same today as they were, and are moving away from that archaic model at an accelerating pace. Eventually, if nothing is done to stop it, capital will be the means of production, using AI and smart factories to create literally everything. The last to die will be the direct service work that you do and that done by cops, restaurant staff and medical people (among others). Eventually, that will go away as well, and there will be no power of labor, because there will be no labor ... only serfs.
Intelligence is not knowledge and knowledge is not wisdom, but they all play well together.
