Weird aside. One of my classmates was the son of someone involved in search and rescue. Seemingly completely unexpectedly, he landed a helicopter in our school playground one day. (It was probably planned through the school, but I think it was a surprise for the kids.) It added some whimsy to the childhood experience.
Ben might be inspired by my "friend" Luke. Lol. Before the internet existed, I was already drawn to (fictional) distant penpals.
Being brought up as a toddler on Star Wars and Indiana Jones and then moving on to MacGyver had an effect.

Ben seems like a nice person to know. Even if he was imaginary.

Ben had everything a child could wish for in an imaginary friend.
