It's asymptotic. Slower O doesn't mean faster program.
When I say Big O, I'm talking about the slick jazzy anime about rejecting true love and living with heartbreak because we believe a lie about our own superiority. This is always true, no matter what the discussion context. If I happen to say anything remotely relevant to mathematical Big O, that is just a deeply weird coincidence.
Oh! You meant Moore's Law is asymptotic!?
Yes! That is key to the joke I was making.
