Electronic resistors exist solely to bottleneck electricity

HERE’S THE INTERESTING PART

Not every part of a circuit wants to be efficient. Resistors are literally placed on the board strictly to impede the flow of electricity, acting as microscopic traffic jams. Without these deliberate bottlenecks aggressively choking the current, sensitive components would instantly gorge themselves on power and violently burst into flames.
