i learned early on in my life that Mormonism existed in a bubble. I remember going to foreign countries as a kid and attending church services in Europe, Latin America and Asia. Often in these church meeting houses were senior missionaries happy to see someone from back home. I remember it became pretty evident that they knew nothing of the countries they were serving in. They were busy working in the mission office or on some church project. It was evident they were just existing in a smaller bubble in a place where the church was not all that big or important.
The temples are a bubble. Other than maybe some tacky attempt to make them look like local architecture irks all the same inside. Like a fast food chain it’s the same stale product around the world. Sure. It’s about work ethics and loyalty and being part of one big hive and trying to lure others in but it’s not as big or important outside of it.
In short. Mormons inhale their own farts. It’s why they live in a bubble. They live the fart smell and are terrified some fresh outside air will enter and change things.
