There’s something related to (a) as a minor point, certainly—a sort of ‘the coyote needs to never look down’ thing, where certain things go interesting places if you let them, even if they’re not where you intended, and you should some combination of gently steer and go with it and then debrief after. It’s not (b). I’m more trying to share a model of how the thing works as I developed it, and share some little things along the way that seem like good moments/data, and also building a 3-part narrative that felt like a 3-part narrative that should be told, and which I decided would be more effective if I split it into 3 even if combined they’re still post-length.
