Firstly, in contrast with daily hassles, cumulative trivia specifically postulates that loss of independence will occur in the absence of interruption or intervention for trivia.
Individually or in small doses these trivia might be coped with successfully without incurring too great a struggle.
The emotional impact of cumulative trivia is that ultimately these problems indicate a progression towards increasing dependence.
Through these arguments we relocate responsibility for cumulative trivia toward the social context.
This is more than just a piece of trivia, because this bears witness to the origins of the subject and changes in its focus.
In addition, cumulative trivia would also include difficulties that are common to all populations, but whose significance may be greater for older people.
Any one instance of trivia would not individually be expected to threaten independence.
These are trivia, of course, and are only mentioned because they cast a slight shadow of doubt over the translation of other, weightier, texts.
