I doubt there's a better example of this than the military. They
attend to all your "needs", by their definition, and ask of you only
what you are capable of, again by their definition.

But not everybody got a uniform issue. Everybody had a mother buy
them clothes.


My Mom bought me my Boy Scout uniform. ;-)
