I think what’s true here, now that I’m considering it for more than five seconds, is that I don’t actually want to do this at all, I just think it’s a funny idea and wanted to share it, and I chose “I want to X” as a conventional way of framing the idea… a habit I should perhaps replace with “It would be funny to X” in the spirit of not misrepresenting my state to no purpose.
You know, it’s actually a really good question.
